The role of wild palms in agroforestry systems in the Neotropics: A review
People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2200-2227, December 2024.Abstract Wild palms are among the most important plants in the Neotropics due to their wide distribution, species richness and cultural relevance for humans. In addition to their presence in forests, these plants also occur in anthropogenic systems throughout their range of distribution, but their role in these systems is often overlooked.

Complex patch geometries maximize species richness at the expense of forest specialists
Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 3, May 2024.We assessed the reptile and amphibian community at 54 sites spanning four habitat types in a fragmented landscape in Costa Rica. Our study revealed that small forest patches and corridors play an important role in herpetofauna conservation, as they support a similar richness, abundance, and community composition to large forest preserves. We also found

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 7-12, January 2024.By increasing the representation of exceptional species in reforestation efforts, we could potentially boost long‐term carbon storage in reforestation projects focussed on carbon sequestration. However, our approach is not a substitute for protecting existing old primary forests and reforested lands plus reducing deforestation and emissions.
