Biological 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 ...

The Paradox behind the Pattern of Rapid Adaptive Radiation: How Can the Speciation Process Sustain Itself Through an Early Burst? [PDF]
, 2019 Rapid adaptive radiation poses two distinct questions apart from speciation and adaptation: What happens after one speciation event and how do some lineages continue speciating through a rapid burst? We review major features of rapid radiations and their

Austral 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 ...
