Combining target enrichment and Sanger sequencing data to clarify the systematics of the diverse Neotropical butterfly subtribe Euptychiina (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 498-570, October 2023., 2023
We present a molecular phylogeny of the Neotropical butterfly subtribe Euptychiina, including 449 described and undescribed species By using a combination of target enrichment and Sanger sequencing data we avoid long‐branch attraction effects and clarify the systematics of the clade.

Evaluating the sustainability of mineral water consumption using multi‐scale hydrogeophysics in Caxambu, Brazil

Near Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 234-251, June 2026.
Abstract A better understanding of the near‐surface aquifer system of the Caxambu Water Park, located in the Minas Gerais State, Brazil, has been achieved. The study aimed to identify groundwater reservoirs and flow patterns and contribute to the hydrogeological conceptual model using a multi‐scale geophysical approach.

A new method to control the invasive sun corals (Tubastraea spp.): Underwater compressed‐air blasting

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Underwater compressed‐air blasting is a novel method developed to control invasive sun corals (Tubastraea spp.). The technique removes coral soft tissue without fragmenting colonies, reducing the risk of regeneration and accidental spread. This approach offers a safer and practical tool for managing invasive corals in natural reefs and biofouling ...

Hide and rule: Accumulation by disappearance and necro‐periurbanisation in Brazil

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 1, March 2026.
Short Abstract This paper examines how peri‐urban spaces are governed through concealment and obfuscation. Focusing on the Baixada Fluminense near Rio de Janeiro, it connects land fraud (‘grilagem’) to the obfuscation of violence, proposing the concept of ‘accumulation by disappearance’.
