The role of wild palms in agroforestry systems in the Neotropics: A review
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
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

Trials and tribulations of Neotropical plant taxonomy: Pace of tree species description
Given the current unprecedented concerns for global biodiversity loss, it is critical to identify best practices for describing new species more efficiently so we can complete the inventory of the Neotropical flora and implement appropriate conservation strategies in a timely manner.
