Hybridisation experiments between freshwater prawns Macrobrachium amazonicum and M. pantanalense (Decapoda: Palaemonidae), and the effects of geographical isolation
(2021-03-01)
The freshwater prawns Macrobrachium amazonicum and M. pantanalense are phylogenetically closely related. The present study analysed the occurrence of copulation between these two species. Specimens of M. amazonicum were ...

The sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is one of the main lepidopteran pests of sugarcane and maize. The association of insects with different environments and/or host plants may ...
Mountain ranges and geographical isolation increase bird taxonomic but not phylogenetic beta diversity in the megadiverse Paramo ecosystems
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Recursos Naturais - PPGERNCâmpus São Carlos, 2019-08-29)
Understanding present-day biodiversity of Neotropical mountain regions requires knowledge of its historical and ecological conditions. We evaluated how Andean uplift, Quaternary climatic oscillations, current climate, and ...
Effect of barriers and distance on song, genetic, and morphological divergence in the highland endemic Timberline Wren (Thryorchilus browni, Troglodytidae)
(2018)

A test of the riverine barrier hypothesis in the largest subtropical river basin in the Neotropics
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-02)
The riverine barrier hypothesis proposes that large rivers represent geographical barriers to gene flow for terrestrial organisms, leading to population differentiation and ultimately allopatric speciation. Here we assess ...
