An unusual titanosaur axis from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil and its significance for sauropod anatomy and systematics. [PDF]

Anat Rec (Hoboken)
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

A large‐scale assessment of ant diversity across the Brazilian Amazon Basin: integrating geographic, ecological and morphological drivers of sampling bias

Ecography, Volume 2022, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022
Tropical ecosystems are often biodiversity hotspots, and invertebrates represent the main underrepresented component of diversity in large‐scale analyses. This problem is partly related to the scarcity of data widely available to conduct these studies and the lack of systematic organization of knowledge about invertebrates' distributions in ...

Phylogenomic reconstruction reveals new insights into the evolution and biogeography of Atta leaf‐cutting ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 13-35, January 2022., 2022
We employ phylogenomic markers (UCEs) to reconstruct the most extensively sampled phylogeny to date for the ecologically dominant leaf‐cutting ant genus Atta, the major herbivore of the New World tropics. The ancestor of Atta arose 8.5 Ma in the North/Central America + NW South America range, and its descendant species rapidly radiated into Neotropical

Phylogeography of Agathistoma (Turbinidae, Tegulinae) snails in tropical and southwestern Atlantic

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 76-90, January 2022., 2022
Abstract The rocky intertidal gastropods Agathistoma viridulum and A. hotessierianum occur from the Caribbean to southern Brazil, with a gap in the equatorial region, giving them an anti‐tropical distribution. We used sequences from mitochondrial genes to elucidate the phylogeography of A. viridulum and A.
