Disentangling Environmental, Spatial and Niche Influences on Fish Beta Diversity Along the Sandy Beaches of an Amazonian River

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Beta diversity is an important descriptor of community structuring and it plays a crucial role for understanding the patterns and processes shaping biodiversity at multiple spatial extents. We investigated the influence of local, spatial, landscape factors and niche characteristics on fish beta diversity along the Acre River in Acre, Brazil ...

Climate Predicts Tree Dispersal Strategies Across Brazil's Ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate the distribution of dispersal modes—endozoochory (via animal ingestion), synzoochory (via animal seed accumulation) and anemochory (via wind)—and seed mass of woody plants across Brazilian ecosystems, testing whether their relative abundance in local plant communities could be predicted by climate, edaphic factors and ...

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 502-516, June 2026.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Environmental Filtering Dominates Over Dispersal Limitation in Structuring Highly Mobile Tropical Communities

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To disentangle the relative roles of environmental filtering (niche processes) and dispersal limitation (neutral processes) in structuring communities of a highly mobile tropical taxon, and to assess the implications for biodiversity patterns at broad spatial scales. Location Brazilian Amazon. Time Period 2011–2019.

Amazonia 2040: Spatial‐explicit futures scenarios for the mosaic of protected areas in the Lower Rio Negro (MBRN), Brazil

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Spatial‐explicit futures scenarios were applied in the Mosaic of Protected Areas of the Lower Rio Negro (MBRN), for co‐creating scenarios for the MBRN in the year 2040. Scenario making enabled negotiating desirable futures, aligning values and goals.
