Mulches effect on net radiation (RN), air (Ta) and soil (TS) temperature, vapour pressure deficit (VPD), soil water content
(SW), stomatal conductance (gS) and survival of three native species in a degraded tropical deciduous ...
Prasiolales are characterized by high morphological plasticity. This problem in taxonomic delimitation of the species may be a result of environment heterogeneity. Habitat characteristics and morphological variation of P. ...
Five species of Microzetidae were found in the Galapagos Islands (Ecuador). Three new species of the genus Acaroceras (A. galapagoensis Sp. n., A. interiunctus sp. n. and A. taurus sp. n.) are described and illustrated. A ...
Comprehensive information on species distribution and species composition patterns of plant communities is required for effective conservation and management of biodiversity. Remote sensing offers an inexpensive means of ...

In viviparous organisms, pregnant females typically experience an increase in body mass and body volume. In this study, the prediction that variation in reproductive traits among populations of viviparous organisms should ...
Since cacti have very small surface/volume ratios, the amount of light they intercept is limited, and so is photosynthesis. However, many cacti shade themselves by means of dense hairy mats, called cephalia, which protect ...

Plants that use fog as an important water-source frequently have a rosette growth habit. The performance of this morphology in relation to fog interception has not been studied. Some first-principles from physics predict ...

Two new cave species of Proisotoma s. str. are described and illustrated: P turikana sp. nov. from Venezuela, and P. santosorum sp. nov. from Mexico. A key for the identification of the Neotropical species of Proisotoma ...
A new Brazilian species of Acherontides Bonet is described and illustrated. Information about its ecology is given and a key to American species is included.
Two new species of cave Collembola, one from each of the genera Typhlogastrura Bonet (Hypogastruridae) and Trogolaphysa Mills (Paronellidae), the first from Mexico and the second from Belize, are described, illustrated and ...
A new genus close to Hypogastrura and its type species from the "El Cielo" Biosphere Reserve, Tamaulipas, are described and illustrated. The proposed genus, Celegastrura, lacks the postantennal organ, which is present in ...
This study deals with oppiid mites from Mexico. Three new species are descibed, one of which represent a new genus (Pararamusella gen. n.), another two belong to new subgenera [Arcoppia (Dysarcoppia) subgen. n. and Berniniella ...
Two new oribatid species belonging to Family Oppiidae Grandjean, 1951 are described from soils of central east Argentina (biogeografic Province of Pampa): Graptoppia (Graptoppia) alzueti n. sp. and Brachioppiella (Gressittoppia) ...
