Keita (Aptandraceae-Olacaceae s.l.), a new genus for African species previously ascribed to Anacolosa, including K. deniseae sp. nov., an Endangered submontane forest liana from Simandou, Republic of Guinea.
We show that the two continental African species previously ascribed to the genus , differ in so many architectural, floral and vegetative characters from the remaining species of the genus (which occur from Madagascar to the western Pacific, including the type) that they clearly represent a separate genus. The African... -

Rediscovery of the lost skink Proscelotes aenea and implications for conservation.
Biodiversity loss is recognized as a grand challenge of the twenty-first century but ascertaining when a species is “lost” can be incredibly difficult—since the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. This may be a relatively easy task for large and conspicuous animals, but extremely difficult for those living...Puruleia, Ali ; Nanvonamuquitxo, Cristóvão ; Ernesto, Milagre ; Jamal, Abdurabe ; Amade, Iassine …
