Abstract:

AbstractTropical dry forests are an intricate ecosystem with special adaptations to periods of drought. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are essential for plant survival in all terrestrial ecosystems but might be of even greater importance in dry forests as plant growth is limited due to nutrient and water deficiency during the dry season. Tropical dry forests in Ecuador are highly endangered, but studies about AMF communities are scarce. We investigated the AMF community of a premontane semi-deciduous dry forest in South Ecuador during the dry season. We estimated AMF diversity, distributio

Abstract:

As the world’s rarest ape, the main threat facing Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) is habitat degradation and loss caused by human disturbances. The insufficient area and continuous human disturbance in most of the existing habitats can hardly maintain the future recovery and development of the gibbon population. A large area of secondary tropical montane rainforest in recovery was retained in Bawangling National Nature Reserve after disturbance. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the recovery of these secondary forests for the protection and restoration of Hainan gibbon habitat.

Abstract:

Collections of Lactarius Pers. from tropical-montane rainforests of Papua New Guinea (dominated by fagaceous, ectomycorrhizal trees) are described. Nineteen new taxa are proposed, and three previously described species are included. A key to the species, illustrations and discussion about the infrageneric position of the presently known Papuan Lactarii are presented.

Abstract:

The Chimalapas region, in eastern Oaxaca, Mexico, holds lowland rainforests, tropical dry forests, and cloud forests typical of the Neotropics, as well as montane pine and pine-oak forests more typical of the Nearctic. Totaling more than 600,000 ha, much of the region is forested, and in a good state of preservation. The Chimalapas avifauna is by far the most diverse for any region of comparable size in the country, totalling at least 464 species in the region as a whole (with more than 300 species in the lowland rainforest) representing 44% of the bird species known from Mexico.

Abstract:

We present the first study of the systematics, ecology, and biogeography of an arboreal oribatid mite from Australia, describe all stages of Adhaesozetes polyphyllos sp.nov., propose new diagnoses for its genus and family, and present a character analysis demonstrating that the family Adhaesozetidae is a member of the Licneremaeoidea. Certain character states, especially the expanded tarsal pulvilli, are interpreted as adaptations to arboreal life. Adhaesozetes polyphyllos grazes on epiphyllic fungi and prefers leaves with smooth surfaces or with closely appressed hairs. It inhabits at least 5

Abstract:

Understanding the impacts of nitrogen (N) addition on soil respiration (RS) and its temperature sensitivity (Q10) in tropical forests is very important for the global carbon cycle in a changing environment. Here, we investigated how RS respond to N addition in a tropical montane rainforest in Southern China. Four levels of N treatments (0, 25, 50, and 100 kg N ha−1 a−1 as control (CK), low N (N25), moderate N (N50), and high N (N100), respectively) were established in September 2010. Based on a static chamber-gas chromatography method, RS was measured from January 2015 to December 2018. RS exh

Abstract:

Anonychomyrma is a dolichoderine ant genus of cool-temperate Gondwanan origin with a current distribution that extends from the north of southern Australia into the Australasian tropics. Despite its abundance and ecological dominance, little is known of its species diversity and distribution throughout its range. Here, we describe the diversity and distribution of Anonychomyrma in the Australian Wet Tropics bioregion, where only two of the many putative species are described. We hypothesise that the genus in tropical Australia retains a preference for cool wet rainforests reminiscent of the Go

Abstract:

AbstractEcuador harbours a diverse assemblage of tropical mammals, yet the natural history and local-scale distributions of many species remain poorly understood. We conducted the first systematic camera-trap survey of terrestrial mammalian carnivores at Wildsumaco Wildlife Sanctuary, a mid-elevation (1,250–1,450 m), montane rainforest site on the slopes of Sumaco Volcano, in the heart of the Tropical Andes biodiversity hotspot. We quantified trap success, latency to detection and temporal activity patterns for each species detected. We recorded nine carnivore species (four felids, two procyon

Abstract:

The discovery of a fossil Tmesipteris specimen from the Late Eocene–Oligocene Cethana deposit is the first macrofossil record of the Psilotaceae. The specimen is represented by a portion of an areial shoot and is assigned to the new species, T. tasmanica. Extant species are virtually confined to ever-wet temperature and tropical montane rainforests of Australiasia, eastern Malesia and islands of the Pacific. The discovery therefore provides an identification that the Cethana deposit was surrounded by vegetation which grew in cool and humid conditions.
