Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss
This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

ABSTRACT This paper addresses stories of surveillance of Brazilian critical/radical geographers, drawing on innovative sources. That is, the folders and reports through which the political police and related institutions watched critical and radical scholars during the 20th century in all Brazilian states and abroad, under both ‘dictatorial’ and ...

We present an extensive phylogenetic analysis, based on 293 nuclear loci and 728 individuals representing 237 species of Anastrepha, the largest and most economically important New World genus of Tephritidae. The analysis strongly supports the monophyly of most Anastrepha species groups, also revealing previously unknown relationships among species and

Groundnut Ringspot Orthotospovirus: An Emerging Problem for Soybean Production in São Paulo State
Groundnut ringspot orthotospovirus is widely distributed in soybean fields in São Paulo State and is transmitted by thrips and, rarely, via seeds; it is a threat to soybean production with implications for virus spread and management. ABSTRACT Orthotospoviruses affect vegetable, leguminous and ornamental plants globally and are transmitted by thrips ...

Growth–survival trade‐off in temperate trees is weak and restricted to late‐successional stages
Our findings highlight a role of disturbances in filtering life‐history strategies and their potential impact on forest dynamics and global carbon cycling, but also a need to better understand the mediating processes of tree demographic trade‐offs.

Abstract The genus Farlowella has been historically challenging, in part due to the difficulty in defining diagnostic characters for defining and identifying the species. Farlowella colombiensis is one such example, whose diagnostic characters are based on caudal‐fin colour pattern, ventral pattern of body cover and anatomical details of the head, such

Abstract Delineating Areas of Endemism (AEs) is crucial for identifying priority areas for biodiversity conservation in a spatial planning framework. Endemicity Analysis in the NDM/VNDM software is one of the primary methodologies for its delineation.

ABSTRACT Land use poses a major threat to global biodiversity, impacting ecosystems across various spatial and temporal scales. Recent studies suggest that past land use changes influence the observed contemporary diversity patterns in stream fish assemblages more strongly than current land use.

Male frogs emit calls to attract mates and deter conspecific rivals. The evolution of these calls is thought to be linked to anatomical constraints and the acoustic characteristics of their surroundings. We tested these two factors in a radiation of 112 species of Neotropical treefrogs and found that body size and calling site affect peak frequency but

De/Sedimentation: The Geopoetics of José Watanabe and Soledad Fariña
This paper explores de/sedimentation as both a textual and geological concept through the works of José Watanabe (La piedra alada) and Soledad Fariña (PAC PAC PEC PEC) to examine how literary and material traces accumulate, erode and reemerge within the colonial Anthropocene.
