East-to-west genetic structure in populations of Aechmea calyculata (Bromeliaceae) from the southern Atlantic rainforest of Brazil
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-07-01)
The Brazilian Atlantic rainforest is the second largest tropical humid forest in South America. Most phylogeographical studies conducted so far have focused on taxa with a north-to-south pattern of geographical distribution ...
The fish zonation of the Itanha,m river basin in the Atlantic Forest of southeast Brazil
(Springer, 2009-12-01)
The distribution range of fishes along an upstream-downstream gradient within a river basin is determined by the ecological requirements of each fish species. This differential pattern of distribution may suggest the ...

(Springer, 2009-12-01)
The distribution range of fishes along an upstream-downstream gradient within a river basin is determined by the ecological requirements of each fish species. This differential pattern of distribution may suggest the ...
Evolutionary history of the calcareous sponge Clathrina aurea: genetic connectivity in the Western Atlantic and intriguing occurrence in the Eastern Pacific
(Springer, 2021)
Clathrina aurea was considered endemic to Brazil before being recorded from the Pacific (Peru) and the Caribbean Sea. We assessed the morphological variability, phylogeographic pattern and population genetic structure of ...
Genetic diversity, gene flow and hybridization in fan-shaped sponges (Phakellia spp.) in the North-East Atlantic deep sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
Deep-sea North Atlantic sponge grounds are crucial components of the marine fauna providing a key role in ecosystem functioning. To properly develop effective conservation and management plans, it is crucial to understand ...
Deep phylogeographic divergence among populations of limpet Siphonaria lessoni on the east and west coasts of South America
(Springer, 2015-01)
The historical processes that have influenced the genetic structure of many species are often associated with environmental changes of the Pleistocene glacial cycles. These climate changes involve temperature oscillation, ...
Controls on Quaternary coastal evolution of the east-northeastern coast of Brazil: roles of sea-level history, trade winds and climate
(1992)
East-northeastern Brazil has a wave-dominated, micro- to meso-tidal coast, lying entirely within the southern Atlantic trade wind belt. Integration of geologic mapping, radiocarbon dating and vibracoring data shows that ...
Species delimitation, patterns of diversification and historical biogeography of the Neotropical frog genus Adenomera (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(John Wiley & SonsOxford, 2014-05)
Aim
For many taxa, inaccuracy of species boundaries and distributions hampers inferences about diversity and evolution. This is particularly true in the Neotropics where prevalence of cryptic species has often been ...
