Mapping the status of global taxonomic knowledge of Orthoptera (Arthropoda, Insecta) Open
The status of taxonomic knowledge varies across the Globe. Quantifying and mapping the geographic patterns of taxonomic status is essential to prioritise regions that require greater attention from the taxonomic community. Here, we compile…

Taxonomic uncertainty: causes, consequences, and metrics Open
Taxonomic uncertainty is prevalent across many biological groups. Yet it remains overlooked in ecology, evolution, and conservation research, leading to potential misinterpretations of biodiversity patterns. Here, we synthesize the recent …

Advancing Amazonian botanical knowledge: a detailed ecological characterization of an open ombrophile forest, southwest Amazonian Brazil Open
Biodiversity inventories present excellent opportunities for ecological investigations and the classification of different threats to the community, nonetheless these applications are not frequently employed. Our main objective was to dete…

Widespread carbon-dense peatlands in the Colombian lowlands Open
Peatlands are some of the world’s most carbon-dense ecosystems and release substantial quantities of greenhouse gases when degraded. However, conserving peatlands in many tropical areas is challenging due to limited knowledge of their dist…

The impact of taxonomic change on the Amazonian palm flora Open
Although taxonomy is an evolving discipline, taxonomic change is rarely accounted for in macroecological studies. By tracking the history of species descriptions and synonymizations of more than 800 names of Amazonian palms, we reveal shif…

Do aposematic species have larger range sizes? A case study with neotropical poison frogs Open
Aim Aposematic animals, i.e., those that are defended and warn potential predators through signals, are suggested to have resource‐gathering advantages against non‐aposematic ones. We here explore this in a biogeographic framework expectin…

<span>OCCUR</span> Shiny application: A user‐friendly guide for curating species occurrence records Open
Ecology increasingly relies on a massive volume of biodiversity occurrence records to draw insights into large‐scale biogeographical, ecological and evolutionary phenomena. This often involves defining a set of criteria that guides the col…

Exploring the impact of data curation criteria on the observed geographical distribution of mosses Open
Biodiversity data records contain inaccuracies and biases. To overcome this limitation and establish robust geographic patterns, ecologists often curate records keeping those that are most suitable for their analyses. Yet, this choice is n…

Macroecological links between the Linnean, Wallacean, and Darwinian shortfalls Open
Species are the currency of most biodiversity studies. However, many shortfalls and biases remain in our

Local hydrological conditions influence tree diversity and composition across the Amazon basin Open
Tree diversity and composition in Amazonia are known to be strongly determined by the water supplied by precipitation. Nevertheless, within the same climatic regime, water availability is modulated by local topography and soil characterist…

Taxonomic uncertainty and the challenge of estimating global species richness Open
It is a biogeographical trope that after several centuries of explora-tion, our knowledge of the world's biodiversity is still staggeringly incomplete (Meyer et al., 2016), even for well-studied groups such as trees (Keppel et al., 2021). …

Water table depth modulates productivity and biomass across Amazonian forests Open
Aim Water availability is the major driver of tropical forest structure and dynamics. Most research has focused on the impacts of climatic water availability, whereas remarkably little is known about the influence of water table depth and …

Relationships between species richness and ecosystem services in Amazonian forests strongly influenced by biogeographical strata and forest types Open
Despite increasing attention for relationships between species richness and ecosystem services, for tropical forests such relationships are still under discussion. Contradicting relationships have been reported concerning carbon stock, whi…
