Clinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 210-226, August 2026.The Burden: Hearing loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensory disorder globally, affecting 1.5 million individuals in Brazil. The Gap: While > 150 genes are linked to HL, the genetic architecture in underrepresented populations like Brazil is poorly defined. The Problem: This lack of data limits diagnostic yield and the application of precision medicine.

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, August 2026.Hummingbird pollination is a hallmark of American plant diversity and has long been thought to evolve in tropical mountains due to declining bee activity. Using sister species of Costus specialized on bees (C. kuntzei) and hummingbirds (C. wilsonii), we show that this shift is not driven by reduced bee visitation with elevation, but by greater ...

New records of extinct Icacinaceae from Paleocene rainforests of northwestern South America
American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Premise This study describes three new records of Icacinaceae—Punctiuga bachue gen. et sp. nov., Palaeophytocrene paramoae sp. nov., and Goweria bacatana sp. nov. from the Paleocene (Selandian–Thanetian) Bogotá Formation in Colombia—improving understanding of the distribution and evolution of this family in the Neotropics.

The artistic view of a botanist-ecologist on the landscape and flora of the Colombian páramo region
Revista de la Academia Colombiana de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y NaturalesAntoine Cleef studied the vegetation of the Colombian and Ecuadorian páramo for four decades. After a brain haemorrhage in December 2018, he lost his speech and his ability to write. He learned to paint with his left hand. Photographs from his fieldwork

WIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 4, July/August 2026.Environmental drivers influence or modulate transport processes that finally determine catchment transit times. TTD represents transit time distribution; MTT is the mean transit time; and Fyw means young water fraction. ABSTRACT Catchment transit time, the time water takes to travel from precipitation to streamflow, is a key diagnostic of how ...

Tropical Bee Assemblage Diversity Decreases With Elevation While Body Size Increases
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.Photos of bee specimens collected in the Colombian Andes across a nearly 3000 m elevational cline. They are arranged to illustrate both the decline in richness with elevation and the increase in community average body size with elevation. ABSTRACT Elevation gradients are powerful drivers of changes in species composition, richness, and functional ...

Conservation effectiveness of seven biosphere reserves in the Western Amazon
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.As deforestation continues to threaten the Amazon, assessing the effectiveness of area‐based conservation strategies is critical for achieving global biodiversity targets. Using matching methods, we evaluated deforestation avoidance in seven biosphere reserves in the Western Amazon and found that most have reduced forest loss, particularly in buffer ...
