The hawthorns Crataegus azarolus L. and Crataegus monogyna Jacq are two ecologically
and medicinally important endemic tree species that occur only in forests of oak in the …

Tropical montane forests (TMF) are characterised by high endemism, species richness and
turnover across elevations. A key question is how niche‐based processes, via adaptation of …

Extensive fieldwork carried out on the Andean forests of Colombia resulted in the discovery
of Lepanthes cordillerana, described here as a novel taxon. The new species is most similar …

We propose Lepanthes chalalensis as a newly identified species confined to the north-east
Andes of Colombia. We randomly placed 341 sampling plots across the Eastern Cordillera …

Abstract Knowledge of how natural and anthropogenic factors can limit the distribution of
rare species is key to develop conservation strategies. We show data on how both factors …

During an expedition in which we randomly placed 341 plots across a large elevation range
(1100-3880 m) and spatial gradient (~ 270 km) in the Eastern Cordillera, we found a new …
