Using an Asteraceae checklist to understand collection history, species density and conservation implications: a case study in the state of Alagoas, Northeastern Brazil.
Alagoas is a Brazilian state contained in the area of two large and important phytogeographic domains: Atlantic Forest and Caatinga. Although the presence of these domains possibly indicates a considerable biodiversity, floristic studies in the state are still scarce, especially for the family Asteraceae. In this sense, we developed a... -

Systematics studies in Pliniinae (Myrtaceae) necessitate two new combinations in Eugenia (Myrtaceae).
Although Eugenia and Plinia genera belong to different subtribes in Myrteae (Myrtaceae), shared morphological features have led to frequent mistaken identity to these species. Molecular phylogeny and morphological studies in Plinia show that Plinia martinellii and Plinia sebastianopolitana should be combined within the generic concept of Eugenia. In addition, two...Stadnik, Aline ; Caldas, Diana K.D. ; Souza, Marcelo C. ; Lucas, Eve J. ; Baumgratz, José Fernando A. …
