The Blue List Initiative: Guiding Biodiversity Restoration in Brazil's Espinhaço Range

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 29, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
The campo rupestre is a biodiversity hotspot marked by extreme habitat heterogeneity and high species turnover. Using phytosociological data, floristic clustering and zeta diversity, we show that habitats are floristically non‐interchangeable and propose habitat‐ and substrate‐specific Blue Lists to guide effective, locality‐based ecological ...

Boundaries Within the Paepalanthus chiquitensis Species Complex (Eriocaulaceae)

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Four morphotypes with associated names are presented toward a more reliable circumscription of Paepalanthus chiquitensis. Morphotype I, associated with the names P. chiquitensis, P. speciosus var. bolivianus, and P. amoenus var. bolivianus, is restricted to savannas of Bolivia and western Brazil.

Beyond the Highlands: Climate Drives Evolutionary Connections Between Ancient Neotropical Mountains and Lowland Biomes

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The assembly of montane plant communities through time is underlain by historical and abiotic factors. However, the extent of evolutionary connectivity between ancient highland ecosystems and surrounding lowlands remains unclear. Here, we investigate the evolutionary connections between the campos rupestres, a hyperdiverse and fragmented ...

A mosaic of colors: The influence of biotic and abiotic factors shaping flower color diversity across a tropical mountain ecosystem

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Flower color diversity within communities is shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Pollinators often prefer specific colors, and floral pigments also help protect against abiotic factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, precipitation, and temperature.
