An archaeobotanical perspective in the study of inflorescence phytoliths of wild grasses from arid and semi-arid environments of Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-04)
Wild cereals have been harvested all over the world by hunter-gatherer with evidences as much in South America as in Australia, North America and Subsaharian Africa. In some places there are still used for human consumption. ...
Phytolith analysis of the main species of Distichlis sp. (Chloridoideae: Poaceae) distributed in South America
(Elsevier Science, 2019-10)
The Saltgrasses are pioneer plants in the early stages of succession in saline soils and constitute particular zonal communities of low species variability. Phytolith assemblage analysis of these species allows a community ...
Silicophytoliths in Holocene peatlands and fossil peat layers from Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, southernmost South America
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013-02)
Phytolith analyses are practically absent from peatlands, except for studies developed on tropical mires and peat profiles. In Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, peatlands represent the largest surface coverage in the South ...

The Maricá “restinga”, located on the eastern part of Rio de Janeiro State (Brazil), corresponds to one of the few remaining preserved areas of the state's coastal plain. This coastline presents two sand barriers separated ...
Plant and soil phytolith analysis of a relictual community of Butia yatay in temperate-humid savannas (Entre Ríos, Argentina)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-08)
Although palms are recognized as a plant group of tropical and sub-tropical ecosystems, in South America they can also be found in temperate savannas under certain conditions. Therefore, since these plants have been widely ...
