Herbarium specimens have long been a cornerstone of taxonomic research but are only
recently being recognized for their potential as a source of spatially and temporally …

Shorebirds (Charadriiformes) undergo rapid migrations with potential for long‐distance
dispersal (LDD) of plants. We studied the frequency of endozoochory by shorebirds in …

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Historical patterns and processes of plants with an American
amphitropical disjunct (AAD) distribution have long interested botanists and …

Abstract The Morelloid Clade, also known as the black nightshades or “Maurella”(Morella),
is one of the 10 major clades within the mega-diverse genus Solanum L. The clade is most …

Internal transport (endozoochory) and external transport (epizoochory) by migratory
waterbirds are key mechanisms of long-distance dispersal for seeds and other diaspores of …

Leandra s. str. clade has around 200 species nearly restricted to eastern Brazil. Most
species in this group are narrow endemics, but a few present striking disjunct distributions …

This study aimed to examine the systematic position of South American species of Phacelia
(Hydrophyllaceae) and Wigandia (Namaceae) and the historical biogeography of …

Biogeographic dispersal is supported by numerous phylogenetic results. In particular,
transoceanic dispersal, rather than vicariance, is suggested for some plant lineages despite …

Phylogenetic studies conducted with two nuclear ribosomal markers created the first
phylogenetic framework in which to understand evolutionary relationships in Mentzelia …
