1. Gene pool sharing and genetic bottleneck effects in subpopulations of Eschweilera ovata (Cambess.) Mart. ex Miers (Lecythidaceae) in the Atlantic Forest of southern Bahia, Brazil
Abstract Forest loss and fragmentation are the main threats to the maintenance of the Atlantic Forest, an important global biodiversity hotspot. Because of the current critical level of deforestation, ecological corridors are needed to facilitate species dispersion and gene flow among fragments. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic variability

2. Use of microhabitats affects butterfly assemblages in a rural landscape
Abstract Landscapes composed of small rural properties may support highly heterogeneous habitat, because they often cover distinct types of land uses adjacent to surrounding forest fragments. Many butterfly species may benefit from this kind of landscape, as very distinct microhabitats can be found in a very restricted spatial scale. To better understand how

3. Longitudinal dimensions of land-use impacts in riverine ecosystems
Resumo: Objetivo Os rios são conectados longitudinalmente através do fluxo de água e as dimensões espaciais dos efeitos das mudanças na vegetação ripária local ainda são pouco compreendidas. Mudanças recentes na Lei de Proteção da Vegetação Nativa permitem a redução de faixas laterais de proteção e anistia para a remoção de vegetação c

4. Floral and reproductive biology of Alcantarea nahoumii (Bromeliaceae), a vulnerable endemic species of the Atlantic Forest
ABSTRACT Alcantarea nahoumii occurs exclusively in the state of Bahia, Brazil, and is classified as vulnerable due to deforestation and frequent fires in the region. Knowledge of floral and reproductive biology is fundamental to understanding ecological interactions, as well as the reproductive success of plant species. The objective of this study was to eva

5. Application of Georadar in Areas with Different Vegetation Cover
ABSTRACT The Atlantic Forest degradation and fragmentation imposes the need for soil and vegetation assessments in order to estimate the environmental vulnerability of the remnants. The objective of this study was to evaluate the georadar applications in areas of Atlantic Forest under different forms of use in Pinheiral, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, thro

6. Análisis panbiogeográfico del género Galianthe subgénero Ebelia (Rubiaceae)
Abstract Galianthe (Rubiaceae: Spermacoceae) is a genus composed by the subgenus Galianthe and Ebelia, the latter includes 11 Neotropical species with a center of diversity located in Brazil. The panbiogeographic analysis emphasizes the importance of the spatial dimension of biodiversity to generate a better understanding of both, evolutionary patterns and p

7. Improving collection efforts to avoid loss of biodiversity: lessons from comprehensive sampling of lycophytes and ferns in the subtropical Atlantic Forest
ABSTRACT Estimating species richness with herbarium data and new collections allows us to understand the distribution of diversity. We investigated the accuracy of lycophyte and fern sampling along a vegetation gradient in the subtropical Atlantic Forest in southern Brazil. We compiled lycophyte and fern collection metadata and estimated species richness and

8. Dung beetle (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae) assemblage of a highly fragmented landscape of Atlantic forest: from small to the largest fragments of northeastern Brazilian region
Human activities in tropical forests are the main causes of forest fragmentation. According to historical factor in deforestation processes, forest remnants exhibit different sizes and shapes. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the dung beetle assemblage on fragments of different degree of sizes. Sampling was performed during rainy and dry season o

9. Demography of the endangered tree species Ocotea porosa (Lauraceae) along a gradient of forest disturbance in southern Brazil
Ocotea porosa (Ness) Barroso (Lauraceae), a typical tree of the southern Atlantic Forest in Brazil, was heavily exploited for timber in the last century. With the aim of examining the status of the remaining populations, we surveyed five forest fragments in the state of Paraná, in southern Brazil, and evaluated whether disturbances caused by selective loggi

10. Structure of the understory community in four stretches of Araucaria forest in the state of São Paulo, Brazil
We analyzed the structure of the understory community in the Atlantic Forest sensu lato, for which phytosociological descriptions of the understory are lacking. We delineated 50 plots of 10 × 20 m each at four sites within an Araucaria forest (a subtype of Atlantic Forest), located in the municipalities of Bananal, Campos do Jordão, Itaberá and Barra do C

11. Edge effect on vascular epiphytes in a subtropical Atlantic Forest
Forest fragmentation affects biological communities by reducing habitat and increasing edges, thus reducing the effective size of the habitable zones. The subtropical atlantic Araucaria forest, typical on the southern Brazil, in some regions has been reduced to less than 1% of its original size lasting only in small isolated fragments. This study aimed to an

12. Selection of forest fragments to seed harvest in Itapemirim river watershed and around the Caparaó National Park / Seleção de fragmentos florestais para a colheita de sementes na bacia hidrográfica do rio Itapemirim e entorno do Parque Nacional do Caparaó
Forest fragments are the natural vegetation interrupted by anthropogenic or natural barriers, able to reduce significantly the flow of animals, pollen or seeds. The edge, the type of neighborhood, the degree of isolation and the effective size of forest fragments are the main factors that should be considered to measure changes in biological processes of a p
