Edaphic Endemism in the Amazon: Vascular Plants of the canga of Carajás, Brazil.
Amazonia is one of the most diverse biomes worldwide, and, as well as luxuriant forest, it includes mountain areas which, despite their small surface area, display fascinating endemism. In these regions, the specificity of edaphic factors is mirrored by a highly specialised, isolated flora adapted to survive adverse conditions.

Genetic diversity in wild populations of the restinga ecotype of the cashew (Anacardium occidentale) in coastal Piauí, Brazil.
The cashew, , is a globally important tropical fruit tree, but little is known about its natural infraspecific systematics. Wild Brazilian populations occur in the cerrado biome and coastal restinga vegetation. We investigated whether wild coastal and domesticated populations could be distinguished genetically using inter-simple repeat molecular markers (ISSRs). In...Genetic variability, Cajuizeiro, In situ conservation, Piauí (Brazil), Caju, Brazil, Dune vegetation, ISSR, and Anacardium occidentale

Myrcia excelsa (Myrtaceae), a new species from Espírito Santo, Brazil.
Myrcia De Candolle (1827: 401) (Myrciinae, Myrteae, Myrtaceae) is represented by 101 species in the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo (Santos et al. 2020). In addition, a new endemic species is here proposed based on a unique combination of morphological features. Morphological terminology follows Radford et al. (1974) and Lucas...Gaem, Paulo Henrique ; Fernandes, Thiago ; Sampaio Valdemarin, Karinne ; Lucas, Eve ; Mazine, Fiorella Fernanda

Updating the checklist of subtribe Hyptidinae (Lamiaceae) from Brazilian Amazonia, with three new taxa and notes on Hyptis sect. Eriosphaeria.
Abstract Three new taxa of subtribe Hyptidinae (Lamiaceae) from Amazonian Brazil are here described: two from Pará state Eriope macrostachya var. amazonica, and Hyptis cachimboensis, and Hyptis spathulata from Rondônia state. The diagnostic characters, which distinguish them from their closest relatives are described and discussed, their conservation status is given...Harley, Raymond Mervyn ; Pastore, José Floriano Barêa
