13. Tillage systems and cover plants change organic fractions of phosphorus in oxisol of eastern Amazonia
ABSTRACT Due to the large extent of degraded areas in the Amazon, the use of conservation systems is very important to contain the advance of the agricultural frontier, and may favor the availability of nutrients such as phosphorus (P). This study evaluated effect of tillage systems on and cover plants distribution of organic P fractions (Po) in oxisol under

14. Bioactive compounds and value-added applications of cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum Schum.) agroindustrial by-product
Abstract Cupuassu is a fruitful species from the Amazon basin with great economical potential, due to the multiple uses of its pulp and seeds in the food and cosmetic industries. This fruit generates large amounts of solid waste, which, despite of its high content of bioactive compounds, is discarded in the environment. Therefore, with the aim of reusing the

16. Emerging hotspots of tree richness in Brazil
ABSTRACT We present a summary of floristic variation and distribution of richness of tree and tree-like taxa (i.e., freestanding plants that reach at least 3m in height) in Brazil. We investigated composition patterns throughout phytogeographic domains and vegetation types based on 698,490 occurrence records obtained from the NeoTropTree (NTT) database, and

17. River damming affects seedling communities of a floodplain forest in the Central Amazon
ABSTRACT The flood pulse of black water rivers in the Amazon basin determines the composition of species along the flood gradient in igapó forests. The Balbina dam, built on the Uatumã River, has altered the flood pulse and caused changes in the floristic composition of adult trees throughout the downstream area. There is a lack of studies on how communiti

18. Drivers of floristic variation in biogeographic transitions: insights from the ecotone between the largest biogeographic domains of South America
ABSTRACT Ecological transitions usually represent vulnerable ecosystems and high biodiversity. Investigating their drivers is important from both biogeographic and conservationist perspectives. One of these transitions is situated between the two largest biogeographic domains of South America - the Amazon and the Cerrado. We evaluated variation in tree flori

19. New record of four sand fly species (Diptera, Psychodidae) in Rondônia State, Western Amazon, Brazil
Resumo A lipodistrofia familiar é uma condição genética rara na qual indivíduos apresentam, além das alterações metabólicas e de depósitos de gordura físicos, um tipo de cardiomiopatia pouco estudada. Muitos dos pacientes desenvolvem alterações cardiovasculares, sendo a mais comumente reportada em literatura, a expressão de um tipo de cardiomio

20. A new species of the sharpshooter genus Dasmeusa (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Cicadellini) from Central Amazon
ABSTRACT A new species of the genus Dasmeusa Melichar, 1926 is described and illustrated from specimens collected in the State of Amazonas, Northern Brazil. Dasmeusa imperialis sp. nov. can be distinguished from the five known species of the genus, as well as from those of closely related genera, by the following combination of features: dorsum yellow with o

21. PERFIL METABÓLICO DOS EXTRATOS POLARES DAS FOLHAS, GALHOS E CASCAS DE Copaifera multijuga HAYNE (COPAÍBA MARI-MARI DA AMAZÔNIA) POR ESI-EM
Copaifera multijuga Hayne is the main species of the genus in the Amazon region, being exploited for copaiba oil production mainly because of its therapeutic properties. The plant parts (leaves, branches, and barks) are widely used in folk medicine. However, they are little explored in terms of chemical composition. In this study, the polar extracts of leave

22. Checklist of the fishes from Jamari River basin, in areas under influence of dams, Rondônia, Brazil
Resumo: O rio Madeira é o mais extenso afluente do rio Amazonas e possui a maior biodiversidade de peixes do mundo. Em sua margem direita, o rio Madeira recebe o rio Jamari, no qual foi construída a primeira usina hidrelétrica (UHE) do estado de Rondônia, a UHE Samuel. Além desta, outros barramentos foram construídos no rio Jamari e em seus afluentes,

23. Neotropical Monogenoidea 62. Biotodomella mirospinata gen. nov., sp. nov. (Polyonchoinea: Dactylogyridae): a parasite of the gills of Biotodoma cupido (Cichliformes: Cichlidae), from the Peruvian Amazon
ABSTRACT Biotodomella gen. nov. (Monogenoidea: Dactylogyridae) is proposed to accommodate Biotodomella mirospinata sp. nov., found on the gills of Biotodoma cupido (Heckel, 1840) (“cara bonita” or “green-streaked eartheater”), a freshwater cichlid from the Peruvian Amazon. The new genus and species differ from other Neotropical dactylogyrids in havin
