Abstract:

The Atlantic Forest is a biodiversity hotspot that includes different types of phytophysiognomies, mainly forests. Hornschuchia, Annonaceae, is one of its endemic genera. Eight Hornschuchia species are found in the tropical moist forest, three of them both occurring in tropical moist forest and tabuleiro forest, a semideciduous seasonal forest, one occurs in the coastal semideciduous seasonal forest and two inhabit the semideciduous seasonal forest and deciduous seasonal forest far from the coast in Bahia. Here we describe the twelfth species of Hornschuchia, which occurs in the Bahian semidec

Abstract:

Two new species of the genus Anthurium are described from Caparaó National Park in the Atlantic Forest region of southeastern Brazil. Presently known collections indicate that the two species occur in distinct elevation zones. A. caparaoense occurs in the semideciduous seasonal montane forest at 1400−1970 m, and A. erythrospadix in both semideciduous seasonal montane forest and dense ombrophilous forest, at 890−1280 m.

Abstract:

This study analysed phytogeographic patterns of several Atlantic Forest areas in southeastern Brazil, including forest areas in the Espinhaço Range, to identify species with congruent distribution patterns and possible environmental factors that might influence these. A total of 54 floristic surveys, predominantly from semideciduous woodland sites but also including some rainforest areas, were compared using UPGMA and DCA methods as well as Jaccard analyses. The former identified four main groupings: group 1 included forests located throughout the Espinhaço Range; group 2 was formed by forest

We present a study of the endemicity patterns in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest on the basis of the distribution of 107 fly species belonging to 24 genera of 15 families. This is the first picture of endemism for Diptera in the Atlantic Forest. Instead of the traditional grid of geographical coordinates, we used a system of topographic units (TUs) for the analysis, delimited after gathering information on rivers and altitude for each state and country. A parsimony analysis of the data matrix with the species records for the TUs was performed, named topographic-unit parsimony analysis (TUPA). Th

Two new records ofE. aztecuswere obtained for the semideciduous Atlantic Forest, in central Brazil, and one record for the Amazonian Forest in northern Brazil, indicating that its distribution extends between Central and South America.

Abstract:

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Bats are the second most diverse mammal order and they provide vital ecosystem functions (e.g., pollination, seed dispersal, and nutrient flux in caves) and services (e.g., crop pest suppression). Bats are also important vectors of infectious diseases, harboring more than 100 different virus types. In the present study, we compiled information on bat communities from the Atlantic Forests of South America, a species-rich biome that is highly threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation. The ATLANTIC BATS data set comprises 135 quantitative stud

Abstract:

Fauna inventories reduce biodiversity knowledge gaps by providing comprehensive data on species distribution, richness, and abundance. Furthermore, they identify undocumented species and enhance understanding of ecosystem dynamics and conservation needs. The richness and abundance of amphibian species were studied in two Semideciduous Seasonal Forest areas in the municipalities of Potiraguá (Serra Azul) and Itarantim (Serra do Mandim) in southwestern Bahia, Brazil. Active visual and acoustic surveys were conducted in 24 forest interior transects, two stream transects, and two permanent ponds i

Abstract:

Protected areas (PAs) are widely recognized as being essential for maintaining global biodiversity. In this study, I aimed to determine whether PAs support a greater richness of forest bird species than unprotected habitats and whether they exhibit functional diversity indices and traits comparable to those found in protected forests in the eastern Brazilian Semideciduous Atlantic Forest. I conducted bird surveys across 20 forest fragments of varying sizes (43 to 37,000 ha), 12 of which were legally designated as PAs. The results indicated that species richness was not significantly higher in

Anurans exhibit the widest variety of reproductive modes among tetrapod vertebrates. The Atlantic Forest is a hotspot for biological conservation; however, biogeographic documentation of the richness of anuran reproductive modes are underexplored. By overlaying maps of 249 species having reproductive modes with aquatic eggs and 101 species with non-aquatic eggs, we described the geographical patterns of anuran reproductive modes in the Atlantic Forest and identified the main correlates of reproductive diversity of these two major types of anuran reproduction. We found the greatest diversity of

The "Serra da Concórdia" is part of the Atlantic Forest phytogeographical domain in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro and it has a predominant phytophysiognomy of Semideciduous Seasonal Forest. This region underwent intense habitat loss and fragmentation during the 19th century, due to coffee plantations and later pastures. With the decline of these activities, the areas were abandoned, triggering secondary succession. In 2002, the "Parque Estadual da Serra da Concórdia" was established in this region to preserve the remaining forest fragments. The updated list of vascular plants recorded

Although the Atlantic Forest harbors the world’s greatest diversity of harvestmen (Arachnida: Opiliones), many forest areas remain undersampled or lack comprehensive data. Given the significant degradation experienced by the biome, it becomes crucial to perform faunal inventories of this group across different regions. This study aimed to conduct a survey of harvestmen by rapid sampling forest fragments of a Semideciduous Forest, a type of Atlantic Forest vegetation, in Ouro Fino and Itatiaiuçu, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
