A Monograph of Conostegia (Melastomataceae, Miconieae). [PDF]
PhytoKeys, 2016 A recent molecular phylogenetic analysis identified a clade containing all species of Conostegia, but that also included species of Clidemia and Miconia nested inside. A taxonomic revision of a more broadly circumscribed Conostegia is presented here.

Taxonomic notes on Pleiochiton (Melastomataceae - Miconieae) [PDF]
Rodriguésia, 2010 Here we propose lectotypification for Melastoma coccinea and Pleiochiton glaziovianum, neotypification for Clidemia suffruticosa, new combinations for C. blepharodes and C. parasitica into Pleiochiton, and the synonymization of C.

Taxonomic notes on Leandra (Melastomataceae, Miconieae) [PDF]
Hoehnea, 2012 In this paper we propose 11 synonyms and six lectotypes for eastern Brazilian species of Leandra. Leandra urophylla and L. nutans are placed in the synonymy of L. acutiflora; Leandra atropurpurea in the synonymy of L.

Seeing the forest through many trees: multi-taxon patterns of phylogenetic diversity in the Atlantic Forest hotspot [PDF]
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 26, Issue 9, Page 1160-1176, September 2020., 2020 We combine phylogenetic and point locality data from selected lineages of the Atlantic Forest flora and fauna to compare spatial patterns of biodiversity sustained by the current configuration of forest remnants to a scenario of complete forest ...

New combinations in the Neotropical genus Miconia (Melastomataceae: Miconieae)
Phytotaxa, 2018 In our published monograph of the Octopleura clade of Miconia (Ruiz & Pavón 1794: 60), we proposed a number of new combinations and new names to reflect the nested position of this group of 33 species within the large and megadiverse neotropical genus ...

Mountain colonization precedes shifts away from bee pollination in Melastomataceae. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Shifts among different groups of pollinators are central in the evolution of flowering plants, yet mechanisms underlying pollinator shifts remain unclear. Environment‐induced reduction in pollinator availability and hence efficiency may destabilize ancestral plant–pollinator interactions and trigger shifts to new, more efficient pollinators ...

Primers for low-copy nuclear genes in the Melastomataceae. [PDF]
Appl Plant Sci, 2016 Premise of the study: Low‐copy nuclear gene primers were developed for phylogenetic studies across the Melastomataceae. Methods and Results: Total genomic libraries from eight species in the Melastomataceae along with one transcriptome were used for marker identification and primer design.
