Aiouea affinis (Lauraceae): A New Tree Species From the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest
ABSTRACT Aiouea is a Neotropical genus of Lauraceae currently comprising ca. 85 species. Descriptions of new taxa have been frequent in recent years, particularly in Brazil, which currently hosts 35 species, 24 of them being endemic. Based on a review of herbarium material and recent collections, we propose a new species, Aiouea affinis, named for its ...

ABSTRACT Urbanization modifies stream ecosystems through changes in land use and water quality, with particularly understudied effects in tropical regions. This study evaluates how the conservation status (reference, restored, and impacted) influences nutrient enrichment and organic matter decomposition—key indicators of ecosystem function—across five ...

Who prefers the dark? Daily activity of dung beetles from an Amazonian region
Daily activity patterns shape how dung beetle species coexist in Amazonian forests, revealing temporal niches that reduce competition and structure biodiversity. We compared species richness, abundance and assemblage composition of dung beetles sampled during day and night in a conserved terra‐firme forest in the Brazilian Amazon. Although richness and
