Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2024.Abstract Nectarivorous bats have evolved various adaptations to feeding from flowers, such as long, extensible tongues and the ability to hover. The champion of tongue length, Anoura fistulata, can extend its tongue to 150% of its body length, yet little is known about its interactions with flowers in the wild. Here we analyzed the diet of A. fistulata

Genetic relationships and variation in reproductive strategies in four closely related bromeliads adapted to neotropical ‘inselbergs': Alcantarea glaziouana, A. regina, A. geniculata and A. imperialis (Bromeliaceae) [PDF]
, 2017 Background and Aims Bromeliads (Bromeliaceae) adapted to rock outcrops or ‘inselbergs' in neotropical rain forests have been identified as suitable plant models for studying population divergence and speciation during continental plant radiations. Little

Pitcairnia mirandae (Bromeliaceae): A New Species from Chiapas, Mexico
Novon, 1998 Pitcairnia mirandae Utley & BurtUtley (Bromeliaceae) is described as new from the state of Chiapas in Mexico. This new species is compared with P breedlovei Lyman B. Smith, which it most closely resembles. The variety of habitats in Chiapas (Miranda, 1952; Breedlove, 1973) is reflected in the ecological diversity and distribution of the 14 species of ...
