One sixth of Amazonian tree diversity is dependent on river floodplains.
Amazonia’s floodplain system is the largest and most biodiverse on Earth. Although forests are crucial to the ecological integrity of floodplains, our understanding of their species composition and how this may differ from surrounding forest types is still far too limited, particularly as changing inundation regimes begin to reshape floodplain... -

Hydro-Edaphic Gradient and Phylogenetic History Explain the Landscape Distribution of a Highly Diverse Clade of Lianas in the Brazilian Amazon.
Plant distribution patterns may indicate habitat specialization either by closely related species with conserved traits or by phylogenetically distant species with converging traits. Lianas represent a large proportion of the overall tropical species diversity and abundance. Despite their importance, little is known about the relationship between habitat specialization and the... -

A taxonomic account of Myrcia (Myrtaceae) at the sites of the Biological Dynamics of Forest Fragments Project, Amazonas, Brazil.
Abstract Myrcia is the sole genus of the Myrciinae, one of the nine subtribes of Myrteae (Myrtaceae). The Amazon forest holds about one-quarter of the Brazilian species of Myrcia, but the genus is still understudied in this whole region. In this context, this study presents a floristic survey of Myrcia...Gaem, Paulo Henrique ; Lucas, Eve ; Andrade, Ana ; Vicentini, Alberto ; Mazine, Fiorella Fernanda
