Origin and evolution of Chrysobalanaceae: insights into the evolution of plants in the Neotropics

, 2013
Some plant families show a striking imbalance in species diversity between the Neotropics and the Palaeotropics. The woody plant family Chrysobalanaceae is a typical example of this pattern, with 80% of the 531 species in the Neotropics. In order to test

Metal Accumulation, Liver Histopathology, and Human Health Risk Assessment Across Different Trophic Guilds in a Mining‐Affected Neotropical River

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal pollution in aquatic environments represents a recurring global concern; however, traditional paradigms often assume linear bioaccumulation patterns that may fail under catastrophic contamination scenarios. This study evaluated metal concentrations in water, sediment, and tissues of 10 fish species from different trophic guilds in the ...

Body Size and Habitat Association as Determinants for Water Balance, Temperature Relations, and Behavioral Performance in Leptodactylid Frogs

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between species' habitat preferences (e.g., aquatic, terrestrial, arboreal) and traits related to body temperature regulation and water balance has been relatively well studied in anurans. However, whether such associations hold for species occupying the same general habitat while differing in other relevant functional ...
