Phylogenetic affinities and species limits within the genus Megadontomys (Rodentia: Cricetidae) based on mitochondrial sequence data
TL;DR: The phylogenetic relationships within the genus Megadontomys were examined using sequences data from the complete mitochondrial cytochrome b gene to corroborate species limits, geographic boundaries of taxonomic entities and assess genetic variation within each taxon.

Low genetic diversity and high differentiation among relict populations of the neotropical gymnosperm Podocarpus sellowii (Klotz.) in the Atlantic Forest

TL;DR: Low genetic diversity was found with both markers, associated with a high differentiation of the Brejo de Baturité population in relation to the others—suggesting their isolation at different points in time, probably during the Pleistocene.

Biogeography of Anurans from the Poorly Known and Threatened Coastal Sandplains of Eastern Brazil.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that vicariance could be one of the factors responsible for the distribution patterns of the anuran communities along the sandy coastal plains of eastern Brazil is supported.
Callicebus torquatus is not a white‐sand specialist
TL;DR: There was no evidence for the white‐sand hypothesis and Callicebus torquatus was found to prefer upland and flooded forests that are tall and well stratified, and growing on many soil types, including white sand.

Reproductive isolation of sympatric forms of the understorey palm Geonoma macrostachys in western Amazonia
TL;DR: Flowering biology may be a key factor in causing reproductive isolation between these closely related sympatric taxa in lowland tropical rainforest in Amazonian Ecuador.
