Was the Dry Diagonal of South America a Barrier for Dispersing Pteridaceae (Polypodiopsida) Species Between the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Amazon Forest?

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We sought to assess how phylogenetic patterns within the fern family Pteridaceae are related to the history of the Amazon Forest and the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, as well as the Dry Diagonal of South America. The age of taxa present in these regions was estimated, as well as those found in previously identified areas of endemism for the ...

Hydroclimate variability in the eastern Kimberley, Australia, since the last deglaciation

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 893-912, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The climate of the Kimberley region in tropical northwest Australia is dominated by the Indo‐Australian summer monsoon (IASM). Understanding of the palaeoclimate since the Last Glacial Maximum in this region, which is well placed to record IASM variations, is currently based on few records.

Fern Communities in Lowland Tropical Forests of Brunei Darussalam, Borneo: Diversity, Indicator Species, and Environmental Drivers Across Forest Types

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2025.
We investigated fern communities across three lowland tropical forest types in Brunei Darussalam—Mixed Dipterocarp Forest (MDF), Peat Swamp Forest (PSF), and Heath Forest (HF)—using data from 48 plots. We found that species richness, indicator species, and environmental drivers varied among forest types, highlighting the importance of habitat diversity

Tracing the biogeographic history of the world's most isolated insular floras

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 952-973, July 2025.
We inferred the spatio–temporal colonization histories of seven vascular plant lineages (Acaena magellanica, Austroblechnum penna‐marina, Azorella selago, Colobanthus kerguelensis, Notogrammitis crassior, Polystichum marionense, Pringlea antiscorbutica) using phylogenetic, divergence time estimation, and Bayesian Island Biogeographic analyses.
