13. Tamaulipan thornscrub after fire: an analysis of the composition of species
Resumo Os incêndios florestais são um elemento natural em muitos ecossistemas terrestres, no México uma das principais causas de perda de cobertura vegetal está relacionada a eles, no entanto, nenhuma pesquisa foi realizada nas comunidades de espinheiros de Tamaulipan sobre as estratégias regenerativas pós-fogo de espécies de plantas, portanto, é imp

14. EVALUATION OF THE GROWTH AND SURVIVAL OF MANGROVE SEEDLINGS UNDER DIFFERENT LIGHT INTENSITIES: SIMULATING THE EFFECT OF MANGROVE DEFORESTATION
RESUMO Os fatores ambientais, principalmente a luminosidade, temperatura e as condições edáficas são de grande importância para o estabelecimento da comunidade vegetal. Em áreas degradadas por desmatamento, esses fatores podem passar por alterações de grande magnitude, podendo a fetar a recolonização das populações típicas da área alterada. Nes

15. Atributos florísticos e ecológicos de formações arbustivas da Restinga em área-chave para conservação da biodiversidade, Guarapari, ES, Brasil
RESUMO O lençol freático vem assumindo papel de destaque nos últimos anos nos estudos sobre a estrutura das comunidades vegetais na Restinga, o que nos levou a comparar a estrutura florística e fitossociológica entre formações arbustivas abertas inundáveis e não inundáveis. Levantamento florístico e método do intercepto de linha foram realizados

16. The flower flies and the unknown diversity of Drosophilidae (Diptera): a biodiversity inventory in the Brazilian fauna
Abstract Diptera is a megadiverse order, reaching its peak of diversity in Neotropics, although our knowledge of dipteran fauna from this region is grossly lacking. This applies even to the most studied families, such as Drosophilidae. Despite its prominence, most aspects of the biology of these insects are still poorly understood, especially those linked to

17. Aquatic vascular plants of South Brazil: checklist and a comparative floristic approach
ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems support species diversity, and knowledge of plant communities is essential for wetland conservation programs. This study provides a checklist of aquatic vascular plants of South Brazil and establishes their floristic affinities with bordering South America phytogeographical domains. The checklist was based on 52 sources, including

18. Colonization-related functional traits of plants in a 50-hectare plot of secondary tropical forest
ABSTRACT The growth-survival trade-off hypothesis states that functional traits of stem, wood, leaves and fruits govern acquisitive and conservative strategies of plant species that grow/survive differently in forests. We aimed to determine whether heterogeneity during the colonization of a secondary Atlantic Forest fragment causes differences in colonizatio

19. Sexual Systems of Plants in a Brazilian Montane Forest
ABSTRACT In this study, vegetation reproduction has been investigated in order to understand aspects of speciation, structuring and composition of plant communities. Thus, we sought to characterize the frequency of sexual systems from species recorded in seed rain occurring in a tropical rainforest (Atlantic Forest) in Caparaó National Park, Espírito Santo

20. An overview of the 2017 report of the French academy of Sciences on biodiversity
Abstract: In the present context of concerns for biodiversity, the French Academy of Sciences produced in 2017 a report entitled “Mechanisms of adaptation of biodiversity to climate change and their limits”. We briefly review here the production process and structure of the report, and summarize its conclusions and recommendations. The conclusions emphas

21. Economic and Environmental Analysis of Pellets’ Production in Rio Pardo Watershed, Brazil
ABSTRACT Economic and environmental aspects of residues energetic use in Brazil are extremelly important. In one hand, the country is today a recognized bioenergy producer in a global scenario; on the other, it is still struggling to provide a reliable renewable energy supply to rural communities. Local demand could be supplied through small investments usin

22. Pre-Columbian human occupation of Amazonia and its influence on current landscapes and biodiversity
Abstract: There is growing evidence that pre-Columbian humans had strong impacts on soils, plant and animal communities and ecosystem functioning in many parts of Amazonia, and that the legacies of these impacts still affect biodiversity and how ecosystems function today. Understanding the history of human/environment interactions in Amazonia is essential fo

23. Factors driving seed dispersal in a Neotropical river-floodplain system
ABSTRACT Dispersal is a key process affecting the diversity of natural communities. We addressed hydrochory of wetland plant seeds in the Middle Paraná River floodplain. We first studied seed dispersal by drifting macrophytes in the Paraná River main channel (MC), in a high discharge secondary channel (HD) and in two low discharge channels (LD) during an e

24. The relationship between plant density and survival to water stress in seedlings of a legume tree
ABSTRACT Competition for soil water is one of the major processes that drive the assembly of plant communities, particularly in regions subjected to long dry seasons. The relationship between plant density and soil water competition has strong, but poorly understood, practical implications for population dynamics, restoration and conservation. We planted see
