Temporal variation in richness and composition of recruits in a diverse cnidarian assemblage of subtropical Brazil
(Elsevier B.V.Amsterdam, 2014-11)
Many studies have shown that the processes of colonization of new marine substrata, from settlement to recruitment, can leave long and lasting signals on the richness, composition and general structure of natural epifaunal ...
New species in Gymnocalycium: a call for common sense
(David Hunt, 2014-03)
The proper delimitation of plant species is far away from being an issue restricted to debateamong professional botanists. Topics like teaching and communication about biodiversity,ecological and biogeographical research, ...
Performance and competitive displacement of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 and MED cryptic species on different host plants
(2019-10-01)
Bemisia tabaci comprises a complex of cryptic species, of which MEAM1 (known as B biotype) and MED (known as Q biotype) are the most invasive and widely distributed ones. In Brazil, MEAM1 was first reported in the 1990s, ...
Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata) on plants of the central region of the Brazilian cerrado
(2011-12-24)
Four surveys of Phytoseiidae species associated with native plants were conducted in ten fragments of Cerrado sensu stricto to determine the species associated with the plants of this region. Twelve of the most common plant ...
Drivers of metacommunity structure diverge for common and rare Amazonian tree species
(2017-11-01)
We analysed the flora of 46 forest inventory plots (25 m x 100 m) in old growth forests from the Amazonian region to identify the role of environmental (topographic) and spatial variables (obtained using PCNM, Principal ...
Deconstructing richness patterns by commonness and rarity reveals bioclimatic and spatial effects in black fly metacommunities
(2016-06-01)
Deconstructing biological communities by grouping species according to their commonness or rarity might improve our understanding about the processes driving variation in biological communities. Such an approach considers ...
A new species of Steneotarsonemus (Acari: Tarsonemidae) from common reed grass, Phragmites australis (Poaceae) in the wetlands of Eastern India
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2021-04-19)
A new species of tarsonemid mite, Steneotarsonemus indianensis sp. nov., is described from common reed grass Phragmites australis (Poaceae). This new species is the first species described under the genus Steneotarsonemus ...
Common Descent of B Chromosomes in Two Species of the Fish Genus Prochilodus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae)
(Karger, 2013-01-01)
To ascertain the origin of B chromosomes in 2 fish species of the genus Prochilodus, i.e. P. lineatus and P. nigricans, we microdissected them and generated B-specific DNA probes. These probes were used to perform chromosome ...
Taxonomic revision of the Menticirrhus americanus (Linnaeus, 1758) and M. littoralis (Holbrook, 1847) (Percomorphacea: Sciaenidae) species complexes from the western Atlantic
(Magnolia Press, 2020-08-06)
The genus Menticirrhus is widely distributed in the Neotropical region, where its species are common and abundant in shallow coastal waters and estuaries. The diversity, biogeography, and evolutionary relationships of the ...
