Allometric Constraint Predominates Over the Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis in a Radiation of Neotropical Treefrogs. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
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

Microbially generated ferruginous crusts: A potential biosignature of continental input in coastal settings

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thin ferruginous sandy crusts are common on top of sandstone beds in the Early Permian post‐glacial deposits of the Paraná Basin in southern Brazil. These crusts usually preserve wrinkle structures, suggesting that they might be a product of microbial mediation.

Hydrocartography in Times of Menacing Waters: Xokleng Mapping and the Politics of Floods in Southern Brazil

open access: yesGeo: Geography and Environment, Volume 13, Issue 1, January‐June 2026.
Short Abstract Following hydrofeminist and political ecology debates, this paper argues for a hydrocartographic approach to the cartographic examination of social water relations that affects both the way we understand cartography and the mapping of waters.

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 54-64, January 2026.
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 ...

Watching Radical Geography: Spaces and Practices of Authoritarian Surveillance in ‘Democratic’ and ‘Dictatorial’ Brazil

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
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 ...

Groundnut Ringspot Orthotospovirus: An Emerging Problem for Soybean Production in São Paulo State

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2846-2856, December 2025.
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

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 11, Page 3466-3477, November 2025.
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.

Establishing new grid‐size‐dependent attributes to rank areas of endemism for conservation priorities

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 493-512, October 2025.
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.

Beyond the Local Catchment: Influence of Regional Context and Land Use Legacy on Current Stream Fish Diversity in Agricultural Systems

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2025.
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.

De/Sedimentation: The Geopoetics of José Watanabe and Soledad Fariña

open access: yesBulletin of Latin American Research, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 147-160, July 2025.
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.
