Dispersal from Africa to the Neotropics was followed by multiple transitions across Neotropical biomes facilitated by frugivores by Jenifer Lopes and co-authors in @annbot

ALT The study on tribe Bocageeae (Annonaceae) reveals that long-distance seed dispersal, mediated by diverse frugivorous animals, played a crucial role in their distribution across Neotropical biomes and between Africa and America. This highlights the importance of frugivore diversity and abundance in plant dispersal across both intercontinental and intracontinental scales.

Excited to share our review on the macroevolution of plant-hummingbird pollination! This charismatic interaction, considered a classic example of coevolution, involves 7,000 plant species across ~100 families and 366 hummingbird species in the Americas t.ly/pBmkl

Great first week in my new role as an ongoing Systematic Botanist at @BotanicSydney! We just returned from a fabulous work retreat—a nice way to meet and get to know the rest of the team at the #herbarium of NSW. Looking forward to working together on future projects! 🌿🌺

One of the most symbolic papers of my career is now out. Here we describe two new species of Barbacenia (Velloziaceae), one in honor of my former supervisor and a great botanist, Renato Mello-Silva (in memoriam).

The Amazon drilling is finally starting after many years of preparation by a large team of incredibly dedicated scientists. Continuous cores (2 km deep!) will take us to the Cretaceous, allowing us to test many hypotheses about the origin and evolution of the Amazon biodiversity.
