Reproductive traits and floral visitors of Aechmea distichantha plants growing in different habitats of a South American xerophytic forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aechmea distichantha, a widely-distributed facultative epiphytic bromeliad species, is present from rainforests to xerophytic forests. At its southernmost distribution (Humid Chaco) it grows in the understory and forest edges.

Dyckia semperflorenssp. nov. (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae) from the cold region of Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Dyckia semperflorens (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae) is described as a new species from the temperate climate region of Rio Grande do Sul state, southern Brazil. The new species belongs to the Dyckia encholirioides complex and is closely related morphologically to Dyckia monticola, which is endemic to the Quiriri mountain range, a high‐altitude region ...

Topography, Seed Dispersal, and Climate Change Reduce Future Habitat for an Endangered Tropical High‐Altitude Plant

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 2, Issue 2-3, Page 95-105, September 2025.
Combining topographic preferences of endangered high‐elevation Puya raimondii rosettes, seed dispersal distances, and future climate scenarios, we project habitat availability in the year 2100 in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru. We predict a significant decrease in occupied habitat patches, with almost complete loss for the +5°C climate change scenario ...

Reproductive systems of Hohenbergia Schult. & Schult.f. (Bromelioideae: Bromeliaceae) endemic to the Atlantic forest

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 9, September 2025.
Many species of the Bromeliaceae are under threat due to the fragmentation and anthropogenic pressure affecting the Atlantic Forest highlight the need to conservation efforts. The genus Hohenbergia deserves special attention in this context, as the Hohenbergia stellata complex includes endemic species that rely on diverse reproductive strategies, which

Reprodução sexuada de Dyckia tuberosa (Vell.) Beer (Bromeliaceae, Pitcairnioideae) e interação planta-animal [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Botânica, 2006
Bromeliaceae is an important component in several Biomas due to its remarkable ecological diversity as well as biotic interactions. It presents a combination of two reproductive mechanisms: sexual and clonal propagation. We describe in this study the various attributes related to the sexual reproduction of Dyckia tuberosa as well as plant-animal ...

Influence of Seasonality and Habitat Variability on the Thermal Ecology of Gymnodactylus geckoides Spix, 1825 (Squamata, Phyllodactylidae) in Semi‐Arid Caatinga Biome in Northeastern Brazil

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Temperature trends influence the behaviour of animals, mainly ectotherms, with thermoregulation led by a contingent of biotic and abiotic factors, such as seasonality and habitat quality, especially regarding nocturnal lizards. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to analyse the microhabitat use and thermal ecology of Gymnodactylus ...

Disentangling the effects of key innovations on the diversification of Bromelioideae (bromeliaceae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The evolution of key innovations, novel traits that promote diversification, is often seen as major driver for the unequal distribution of species richness within the tree of life.

Expansions and contractions of the inverted repeat, as well as gene loss and potential pseudogenization shape plastome evolution in Hechtioideae (Bromeliaceae, Poales)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 421-437, May 2024.
Analysis of complete plastome sequences obtained by whole‐genome sequencing improved statistical support across different phylogenetic depths in Hechtioideae and allowed the identification of highly informative loci previously unexplored in this lineage.
