New insights into Ituglanis (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) diversity in Bahia State, eastern Brazil: Description of a new species and conservation status reappraisal

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The northeastern Atlantic Forest of Brazil harbours a remarkable diversity of species of Trichomycteridae, many of which remain poorly understood. This study describes a new species of Ituglanis, endemic to the Ribeirão São Roque, a stream tributary of Rio Piabanha, an affluent of Rio Colônia basin, Bahia State, Brazil.

New records of the flower fly Lejops barbiellinii (Ceresa, 1934) (Diptera, Syrphidae) in the Atlantic Forest: integrating collection and citizen science data

open access: yesEntomological Communications
Citizen science provides valuable data on species diversity worldwide. In this note, we discuss how a scientist's opportunistic observations of biodiversity, recorded on a citizen science platform, have enriched our understanding of the geographic ...

Taxonomic novelties in Adenocalymma (Bignonieae, Bignoniaceae) endemic to the Atlantic Forest [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Ecology and Evolution
Background and aims – During ongoing morphological studies of Adenocalymma, we realized that nomenclatural updates are necessary in the genus. Here, we propose a new circumscription of A. acutissimum and the description of the new species A. darwinii.

A new South American darter (Crenuchidae: Characidium) from rivers draining the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, Brazil: morphological and molecular evidence

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Characidium tupi, a new species from rivers draining the southern portion of the Northeastern Mata Atlantica Freshwater Ecoregion, is described. The new species can be distinguished from all congeners by its colour pattern, including 7–14 dark bars enlarged and more conspicuous on their ventralmost portion, resulting in a longitudinal series ...

Matchmaking: a meta‐analysis of plant growth‐promoting microbial partnerships driving tree seedling performance in the Atlantic Forest biome

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF) is a biodiversity hotspot, and inoculating native seedlings with plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) may enhance seedling vigor for forest restoration. Objectives We performed a meta‐analysis to evaluate the effects of PGPMs on BAF seedlings and identify strategies to optimize ...

The role of tropical forest fragment vegetation in maintaining arthropod diversity and spillover to adjacent sugarcane fields O papel da vegetação de fragmentos de floresta tropical na manutenção da diversidade de artrópodes e na sua disseminação para campos de cana‐de‐açúcar adjacentes

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 82-93, February 2026.
Tree diversity increases arthropod richness and the abundance of beneficial arthropod groups within Atlantic Forest fragments. Higher insect richness in forest fragments is associated with greater richness in adjacent sugarcane fields, and both habitats share insect families, suggesting spillover.
