Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Using nrITS, plastome, and single‐copy SNP data, we resolved the phylogeny of the Calanthe alliance, which originated in the late Oligocene. Its diversification process followed a two‐step pattern: first the warmest Cenozoic interval and Himalayan uplift drove the formation of three major lineages, then sustained Miocene cooling shaped further ...

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.Species diversity typically increases from higher to lower latitudes, but the regional‐scale variation along this geographic gradient remains unclear. It has been suggested that species diversity throughout Amazonia generally increases westward toward the Andes, but this pattern and its environmental determinants require further investigation for most ...

Animals, 2011 The Neotropical freshwater ichthyofauna has among the highest species richness and density of any vertebrate fauna on Earth, with more than 5,600 species compressed into less than 12% of the world’s land surface area, and less than 0.002% of the world’s ...

Evolution and loss of long-fringed petals [PDF]
, 2012 Background: The Cucurbitaceae genus Trichosanthes comprises 90–100 species that occur from India to Japan and southeast to Australia and Fiji. Most species have large white or pale yellow petals with conspicuously fringed margins, the fringes sometimes ...

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT The large estimates of mesopelagic fish biomass have long fuelled harvesting interests in the relatively untouched twilight zone of the ocean. The silvery lightfish—one of the most abundant species inhabiting the North Atlantic mesopelagic layer—is a candidate for such a fishery despite its enormous ecological importance and the insufficient ...

A summary of the endemic beetle genera of the West Indies (Insecta: Coleoptera); bioindicators of the evolutionary richness of this Neotropical archipelago [PDF]
, 2012 The Caribbean Islands (or the West Indies) are recognized as one of the leading global biodiversity hot spots. This is based on data on species, genus, and family diversity for vascular plants and non-marine vertebrates.

Ancestral Biogeography Reveals Diverse Origins of Costa Rica Margin Seep Invertebrates
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aim This work addressed the hypotheses that invertebrate species from hydrocarbon seeps at the Pacific Costa Rica Margin (CRM) would descend from adjacent biogeographic provinces, and that common ancestral histories would be identified across invertebrate groups.
