Dissimilar climatic niche is predictive of contrasting historical demographic changes and altitudinal shifts in related oak species (Quercus). [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise Comparative surveys allow us to characterize the influence of specific factors on population genetic diversity and structure. We conducted a comparative phylogeographic study for three Mexican oak species to identify how their climatic niche preferences and breadth may have influenced historical demography and range shifts during ...

Pleistocene Climate Changes and Lineage Diversification of <i>Sphenarium</i> Grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Pyrgomorphidae). [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We investigate the phylogeographic history and paleodistribution patterns of four closely related grasshopper species of the genus Sphenarium to test the relative impact of Pleistocene climate fluctuations on their diversification. We found that each species responded differently to these fluctuations, but their divergence, distribution, and ...

Jaguar Density at the Northeastern Limit of Its Distribution in Mexico. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study presents the first estimate of jaguar density in northeastern Mexico using a spatial capture–recapture model with random thinning, which incorporates both identified and unidentified camera trap detections. Conducted over 91 days with 104 cameras, the model yielded a density of 1.29 individuals per 100 km2 in the El Cielo–Sierra de Tamalave ...

Fungi and Myxomycetes of the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Biosphere Reserve, Mexico: A Comprehensive Review and Future Perspectives. [PDF]

IUBMB Life
ABSTRACT The Tehuacán‐Cuicatlán Biosphere Reserve in Mexico, spanning approximately 10,000 km2, is crucial for conserving arid and semi‐arid ecosystems, as it hosts unique endemic species and complex ecological interactions. Despite their environmental significance, fungi and myxomycetes in this region have been understudied, particularly those adapted

High Elevation Occurrences of Jaguars (<i>Panthera onca</i>, Linnaeus 1758) (Mammalia, Felidae) in Northwestern Mexico, With a Record of Collaborative Interactions. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Jaguars in the northern end of their distribution have recently become the center of conservation efforts; however, the State of Chihuahua has been underrepresented in monitoring projects. We present five new records of jaguars in high altitudes as well as the first evidence of two jaguars exhibiting cooperative behavior in Mexico.

Climatic niche shifts and ecological sky-island dynamics in Mesoamerican montane birds. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We describe climatic niche of four Neotropical montane birds through the analysis of climatic factors driving their evolution at inter‐ and intraspecific levels. We tested for differences among lineages within four taxa (Aulacorhynchus, Chlorospingus, Cardellina, and Eupherusa), all associated to Mesoamerican humid montane forests.
