Unraveling the Spiraling Radiation: A Phylogenomic Analysis of Neotropical Costus L
The family of pantropical spiral gingers (Costaceae Nakai; c. 125 spp.) can be used as a model to enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying Neotropical diversity. Costaceae has higher taxonomic diversity in South and Central America (c.

Local and regional ecological morphology of dung beetle assemblages across four biogeographic regions [PDF]
Aim Niche partitioning within species assemblages is thought to influence species packing and/or total niche space occupied. The evolution of dung beetles (Scarabaeinae) is likely to have been strongly influenced by inter-specific competition, leading to
