Abstract:
The genus <i>Phlegmariurus </i>Holub<i> </i>is recognised more widely than originally proposed and is circumscribed to include both Neotropic and Palaeotropic epiphytic and terrestrial species of Huperzioid Lycopodiaceae that have isotomous shoots, lack bulbils in their sporophyllous shoots and have spores with convex lateral margins and foveolate-fossulate sculpture restricted to their distal surfaces. New combinations with <i>Phlegmariurus</i> are proposed for 81 species and existing combinations identified for 33 species originating from the Palaeotropics. This installs a generic circumscri

Abstract:
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The responses of bats to land-use change have been extensively studied in temperate zones and the neotropics, but little is known from the palaeotropics. Effective conservation in heavily-populated palaeotropical hotspots requires a better understanding of which bats can and cannot survive in human-modified landscapes. We used catching and acoustic transects to examine bat assemblages in the Western Ghats of India, and identify the species most sensitive to agricultural change. We quantified functional diversity and trait filtering of assembla

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe most diverse known communities of insectivorous bats in the Palaeotropics and Neotropics are similar in alpha diversity (number of species). However, they show distinct differences with respect to wing morphology and the echolocation behaviour of their component species. In the Palaeotropics, most bat families are clearly separated in wing morphospace. The morphological niche of Rhinolophidae is vacant in the Neotropics, but primitive echolocators using sound primarily for scanning the environment rather than for prey capture are much more frequent there than in the Palaeotropics.

Abstract:Epiphytes represent keystone resources for many arthropod and vertebrate species, however their ecology remains poorly explored, especially within the palaeotropics. Several recent studies have examined relationships between epiphyte richness and characteristics of local habitats, although these have all focused on neotropical forests. Here, we aim to determine whether predictors of neotropical epiphyte richness are consistent at a palaeotropical site. A total of 44 host trees (dbh range 25–288 cm) were sampled at two study sites on Buton Island, Indonesia. For each tree, epiphyte ric

Goniothalamus is one of the largest genera in the pantropical angiosperm family Annonaceae. It includes c. 130 species of trees, distributed in tropical lowland and submontane forests in tropical Asia, Australia and Melanesia. Previous studies have indicated that Goniothalamus shows a significantly higher diversification rate in comparison to closely related taxa and that its species diversity is the result of a relatively recent radiation.

Abstract:
Abstract The Pacific Ocean comprises a vast area of open sea with an array of mainly small, scattered islands indicating the presence of inter-basin ridges and rises. The only continental areas in the region are Australia New Guinea, on the western boundary Asia, and on the eastern boundary the Americas. Although modern lichenological studies in the tropical Pacific are still in their infancy, it is possible to detect several biogeographical elements in the region’s lichen floras as presently known. These include: (1) pan tropical, (2) palaeotropical, (3) endemic, (4) cosmopolitan, (5) antitro
