Vasconcelos et al. show that lineages with seeds dispersed by frugivores have wetter and warmer climatic optima and lineages that are not dispersed by frugivores tend to shift climatic niches more often 🌸🌼🌺 Thais Vasconcelos, James Boyko, Jeremy Beaulieu doi.org/10.1111/jbi.14…
Thrilled to announce that the final chapter of my PhD has just been published in GEB Journal. Why species richness is so unbalanced across the Earth? Here we explore the dramatic differences in lizard diversity among the world's main deserts 🦎🏜️🌏 doi.org/10.1111/geb.13… ⬇️
Very good news for a Friday after a hard week. I got accepted to the PhD program at UMich Ecology and Evolutionary Biology!! 🌿🎉
At nearly 500 pp, "Drivers of Neotropical Diversity" is the largest issue Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society (Vol 199 part 1) to date. Editorial, five reviews and 20 original papers. #BotJLinnSoc200 academic.oup.com/botlinnean/iss…
I'm excited to announce that I will be joining UMich Ecology and Evolutionary Biology as an Assistant Professor & Herbarium Curator this Fall (2022)! I'll be soon looking for grad students too! If you like plant biogeography and/or tropical botany, check out my website for more information👇#NewPI 🌿🌿🌿
Very proud of my MSc student Friederike J.R. Wölke for leading this work New Phytologist: Africa is unique when it comes to fruit size evolution - fruits evolve to be larger than elsewhere, possibly due to dispersal by megafauna 🐘 and Miocene savanna expansion🌴 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…
I'm glad that the main product of my postdoc at USP - Universidade de São Paulo with a fellowship of Agência FAPESP is finally published!
How can pollination affect seed dispersal? We don't have a good answer because both topics are rarely integrated. That's why mika hkoski and I proposed this framework just published in Ecology Letters. In that, we (+) doi.org/10.1111/ele.14…
