Testing predictions of spatial segregation of the sexes and life‐history theory in three species of the dioecious genus Baccharis L. from southeastern Brazil

Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page 1165-1175, October 2025.
Females and males of three dioecious shrub species of the genus Baccharis L. from southeastern Brazil show notable divergence in their conformity with life history tradeoff expectations, as measured by sex‐specific allocations to growth and reproduction and spatial distribution along an environmental gradient. Abstract I report results of a field study

Systematics of the neotropical woody bamboo genus Rhipidocladum (Poaceae: Bambusoideae)

, 2018
Rhipidocladum, a genus of about 18 species divided among three sections, is classified within the neotropical woody bamboo subtribe Arthrostylidiinae (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Bambuseae). Morphology and molecular analyses support the monophyly of the subtribe, but internal relationships remain uncertain.

Wood density variation across an Andes‐to‐Amazon elevational gradient

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 9, Page 2370-2385, September 2025.
We study how wood density varies along a 3500‐m elevational gradient, spanning from the Andean tree line to the Amazon basin. Our results reveal that wood density decreases from low to mid‐elevations, then increases toward the tree line. These patterns underscore the influence of species composition, life forms such as tree ferns, and local ...

Diversity and Activity Patterns of Medium‐Sized and Large Terrestrial Mammals in Agroforests of a Peruvian Amazon Rainforest Region

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
We studied species richness and activity patterns of medium‐sized and large terrestrial mammals in agroforests located in the northern buffer zone of Tambopata National Reserve, Peru. The agroforests harboured a high number of mammal species, with species richness increasing alongside greater structural complexity of vegetation.

Insights on Climate Risks to the Central African Forest Ecosystems: An Interdisciplinary Review

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The Congo Basin in Central Africa is home to the second largest rainforest in the world after the Amazon. These forests sequester more carbon than any other tropical forest both in the above‐ground biomass and in the world's largest peat deposits, located in the Cuvette Centrale.
