Combining regional to local restoration goals in the Brazilian Atlantic forest
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Regional Environmental Change"
DOI: 10.1007/s10113-021-01792-0
Abstract: To achieve regional and international large-scale restoration goals with minimum costs, several restoration commitments rely on natural regeneration, a passive and inexpensive strategy. However, natural regeneration potential may vary within the landscape, mainly due to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10531-021-02150-6
Abstract: Mapping diversity patterns is important to clarify its causes and is essential information for conservation policies. We map the distribution of vascular epiphytes from the Southern block of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest (SBAF) to understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13744-017-0543-x
Abstract: The genus Praepedaliodes Forster, 1964, the only representative of the mega-diverse mostly Andean Pedaliodes complex lineage in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, is revised. Prior to this study, four species were known, P. phanias (Hewitson, 1862),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ympev.2019.106627
Abstract: The advent of next-generation sequencing allows researchers to use large-scale datasets for species delimitation analyses, yet one can envision an inflection point where the added accuracy of including more loci does not offset the increased… read more here.

Hidden diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest: the discovery of Jurasaidae, a new beetle family (Coleoptera, Elateroidea) with neotenic females
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-58416-6
Abstract: Beetles are the most species-rich animal radiation and are among the historically most intensively studied insect groups. Consequently, the vast majority of their higher-level taxa had already been described about a century ago. In the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/13549839.2019.1663800
Abstract: ABSTRACT Regions of high biodiversity often coincide with regions of poverty and conservation can imply economic and social costs for poor resident populations. Environmental compensation is considered a tool to reduce socio-environmental conflict, improve the… read more here.
