Climate Predicts Tree Dispersal Strategies Across Brazil's Ecosystems

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate the distribution of dispersal modes—endozoochory (via animal ingestion), synzoochory (via animal seed accumulation) and anemochory (via wind)—and seed mass of woody plants across Brazilian ecosystems, testing whether their relative abundance in local plant communities could be predicted by climate, edaphic factors and ...

Unusual occurrence of Cochlichnus in aeolian sandstones: evidence for a stiletto fly larval origin

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Cochlichnus anguineus is an ichnotaxon recognized for its distinctive regular wavy morphology. It is a characteristic trace fossil typically associated with aquatic and marginal aquatic environments. However, in this study we examine its unusual occurrence in the aeolian sandstones of the Botucatu Formation (Lower Cretaceous, Paraná Basin ...

Frost Decreases Fruit Production in a Neotropical Savanna: Implications for Frugivorous Bird Abundances

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Severe frost events seem to be happening on average every 5 years, rather than 7 years, as previously reported in the southern limit of the Cerrado, a Neotropical savanna. We conducted this study in the Cerrado, where severe frost events allowed us to compare fruit production and frugivorous bird abundance before and after the disturbance.
