DOI: 10.1002/ece3.5306
Abstract: Abstract Various historical processes have been put forth as drivers of patterns in the spatial distribution of Amazonian trees and their population genetic variation. We tested whether five widespread tree species show congruent phylogeographic breaks… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2636
Abstract: The forests of western Amazonia are among the most diverse tree communities on Earth, yet this exceptional diversity is distributed highly unevenly within and among communities. In particular, a small number of dominant species account… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/01916122.2019.1692314
Abstract: ABSTRACT Western Amazonia underwent dramatic changes in its landscape and environments during the Neogene, which led to its extant, hyperdiverse, tropical rainforest. Although the palynological fossil record has been the most useful proxy for understanding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/01916122.2020.1758971
Abstract: ABSTRACT In western Amazonia, palynology has been the main source of chronological information for the Neogene Period. The Solimões Formation in northwestern Brazil has hundreds of meters of fine-grained rocks that have yielded rich pollen… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/01916122.2021.1980129
Abstract: ABSTRACT The Neogene was a critical interval in the establishment of the modern geography and biotic composition of Amazonia. Because the region is covered with rainforest vegetation and lacks extensive outcrops, most of the understanding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14772019.2018.1498034
Abstract: Unionid bivalves are a common and widely distributed group of freshwater mussels, presumably known since the Triassic. One peculiar trait is their life cycle, with brooding of eggs in portions of the gills and release… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13721
Abstract: Aim: In Amazonia, 227 of c. 16,000 tree species account for half the individual trees (termed ‘hyperdominant’ species), and a disproportionate number of these species are palms. Our objectives are to show how and whether… read more here.
