(The Otter Specialist Group, 2017-01)
The neotropical river otter (Lontra longicaudis) has scarce distribution records in Northwestern Argentina (NWA); most of them are old, inaccurate, and/or coming from mentions not well corroborated. We report filmic and ...
Dispersal and local persistence shape the genetic structure of a widespread Neotropical plant species with a patchy distribution
(Oxford Univ Press, 2019-08-16)
Background and Aims Isolated populations constitute an ideal laboratory to study the consequences of intra-specific divergence, because intrinsic incompatibilities are more likely to accumulate under reduced gene flow. ...
