The genus Lepidaploa (Vernonieae, Asteraceae) in southern South America [PDF]
A morphological analysis of the genus Lepidaploa (Vernonieae) of southern South America has been carried out. Until now, the information concerning the genus was fragmented and incomplete for this region. Altogether, 13 species are described and illustrated here. A comprehensive key to the species of southern South America is presented; in addition, we

Changes in Holocene climate and the intensity of Southern Hemisphere Westerly Winds based on a high-resolution palynological record from sub-Antarctic South Georgia [PDF]
Sub-Antarctic South Georgia is a key region for studying climate variability in the Southern Hemisphere, because of its position at the core of the Southern Hemisphere Westerly Wind belt and between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and the Polar Frontal

Fishes of southern South America: a story driven by temperature [PDF]
The latitudinal extension of southern South America imposes a thermal gradient that affects the structure of marine and freshwater fish assemblages and the biology of the species through direct exposure to the temperature gradients or by means of a web of historical and ecological relationships. We have reviewed biological and ecological data of marine
