Species occurrence records provide the basis for many biodiversity studies. They derive from georeferenced specimens deposited in natural history collections and visual observations, such as those obtained through various mobile applications. Given rapid increase availability of data, control quality accuracy constitutes a particular concern. Automatic filtering is scalable reproducible means to identify potentially problematic tailor datasets public databases Global Biodiversity Information...
Myrtaceae is one of the most species-rich botanical families and a critical floristic component in regions with high diversity, such as Atlantic Forest Cerrado. In Neotropical region, Myrteae main tribe includes diverse genera Eugenia, Myrcia, Psidium, Myrceugenia, Campomanesia. Here, we investigated climatic suitability selected species - Campomanesia guazumifolia, C. xanthocarpa, Eugenia pyriformis, Psidium cattleyanum across South America. This study spans present day, three historical...

Grassy ecosystems occupy 27% of Brazilian territory and have historically been neglected in conservation efforts studies about biodiversity. The Campos Sulinos region Southern Brazil includes open formations the Pampa Atlantic Forest domains. This has smallest coverage by protected areas country presents high levels biodiversity endemism. Besides, this is under threat due to croplands exotic tree plantations. Here, we compile a plant population genetics phylogeography dataset from published...
This study aimed to evaluate knowledge about and the usage importance of aquatic vascular plants (AVPs) in production handicrafts by communities on north coast state Rio Grande do Sul southern Brazil. The snowball technique was employed locate people who use have regarding AVPs for handicrafts. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews guided tours with 35 interviewees involved artisanal activity at time study. data analyzed using value (IV) index consensus forms (CMU).

Abstract Flowers producing oil resources and bee pollinators are involved in one of the most specialized pollination strategies. Various species Iridaceae tribe Tigridieae characterized by floral oil-secreting structures called elaiophores, but plant–pollinator interactions among these taxa remain poorly understood. This study focused on four South American three genera to assess nature extent ecological specialization related flower/oil interactions. Proportion, frequency behaviour...
The Southern and Southeastern regions of Brazil present the highest species richness Sisyrinchium, taxa are mainly distributed in Atlantic Forest Biome. Here, three new belonging to Sisyrinchium sect. Viperella from this biome described: S. caratuvense is endemic high altitude grasslands eastern Paraná, usneoides campo rupestre phytophysiognomy southern Minas Gerais, iguazuanum has a wider distribution, occurring western Santa Catarina Paraná (Brazil), Misiones (Argentina). Descriptions,...
Typha L. (Typhaceae) é um gênero de monocotiledôneas aquáticas amplamente distribuído no mundo, o qual tem sido utilizado desde a pré-história como importante fonte alimentícia para ser humano. Apesar disso, pouco se sabe sobre os aspectos etnobotânicos desse Brasil. Assim, conduziu-se esta revisão bibliográfica, utilizando as plataformas Google Scholar, Scopus e Web of Science. O presente estudo sintetiza conhecimento difuso dos usos Typha, passados presentes, por comunidades brasileiras,...
