Ceará state has a coastal extension of 578 km and lies totally within the semi-arid zone of northeastern Brazil. Here we present a checklist of the phanerogamic species found along the coast of Ceará that was compiled from surveys and collections found at the EAC herbarium (Fortaleza, Ceará). A total of 391 species distributed among 208 genera and 41 families were identified. The families with the greatest numbers of species were Fabaceae senso latu (130 species), Cyperaceae (51), Poaceae (47), Rubiaceae (27), Euphorbiaceae (19), Asteraceae (13), Bignoniaceae (11) and Malvaceae (12), representing over 78.77% of the species collected.

Wood anatomical syndromes vary between shrubs and trees, but no prior work has explicitly evaluated the contingent evolution of wood anatomical diversity in the context of these plant habits. Methods Phylogenetic comparative methods were used to test for contingent evolution of habit, habitat and wood anatomy in the mega-diverse genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae), across the largest and most complete molecular phy- logeny of the genus to date. Key Results Plant habit and habitat are highly correlated, but most wood anatomical features correlate more strongly with habit.

  • Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) 2020 Brazil
    Report Brazil Rome, 2020 FRA 2020 report, Brazil FAO has been monitoring the world's forests at 5 to 10 year intervals since 1946. The Global Forest Resources Assessments (FRA) are now produced every five years in an attempt to provide a consistent approach to describing the world's forests and how they are changing. The FRA is a country-driven process and the assessments are based on reports prepared by officially nominated National Correspondents. If a report is not available, the FRA Secretariat prepares a desk study using earlier reports, existing information and/or remote sensing based analysis. This document was generated automatically using the report made available as a contribution to the FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020, and submitted to FAO as an official government document.

Manoel de Medeiros, s.n., CEP 52171-930, Dois Irmãos, Recife, PE, Brasil. O rio Tapacurá nasce no município de Pombos, na vertente leste do planalto da Borborema, região agreste de Pernambuco, atravessa o município de Vitória de Santo Antão e parte do município de São Lourenço da Mata até desembocar no rio Capibaribe. Originalmente em sua maior parte, o vale formado pelo rio Tapacurá era coberto por Floresta Estacional (Mata Seca) ou Floresta Perenifólia Ombrófila (Mata Úmida). Atualmente, depois de décadas de utilização do solo para plantio de cana-de-açúcar, o que resta são alguns fragmentos florestais transformados em Unidades de Conservação (UC´s)e áreas de pastagem, algumas das quais abandonadas, permitindo uma lenta regeneração natural. Alguns autores consideram que com a derrubada das formações florestais nesta área houve uma invasão de espécies da caatinga. Como a maioria das regiões ecotonais, neste caso transicional entre caatinga e mata atlântica, a região apresenta uma flora muito rica e diversificada e a família Euphorbiaceae, juntamente com a Fabaceae, é um dos principais componentes, por esse motivo foi escolhida como objeto deste estudo.

Accordingly, we recorded the diversity of thrips (Insecta: Thysanoptera) associated with a restinga fragment located on the campus of the State University of Ceará (UECE), Fortaleza, Ceará state, and computed the estimated richness and diversity indices. Samples were collected from 2011 through 2013 from flowers of 86 plant species. The material was taken to the Laboratory of Insect-Plant Interaction, where thrips were screened under stereomicroscope. We collected 456 adults and 58 immatures, representing 14 species, in addition to one unidentified species ofTreherniella . Microcephalothrips abdominalis was found on a large number of host plants, and Frankliniella insularis was the most common species.

  • A Revised Infrageneric Classification and Molecular Phylogeny of New World Croton (Euphorbiaceae)
    TAXON 60 (3) • June 2011: 791–823 Van Ee & al. • Taxonomy and phylogeny of New World Croton A revised infrageneric classification and molecular phylogeny of New World Croton (Euphorbiaceae) Benjamin W. van Ee,1 Ricarda Riina2,3 & Paul E. Berry2 1 Black Hills State University Herbarium, 1200 University Street, Spearfish, South Dakota 57799, U.S.A. 2 University of Michigan Herbarium, Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108, U.S.A. 3 Real Jardín Botánico, CSIC, Plaza de Murillo 2, 28014 Madrid, Spain Author for correspondence: Benjamin van Ee, [email protected] Abstract Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is a large and diverse group of plants that is most species-rich in the tropics. We update the infrageneric classification of the New World species of Croton with new evidence from phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequence data from all three genomes. The relationships of species that were previously placed in conflicting positions by nuclear and chloroplast data, such as C. cupreatus, C. poecilanthus, and C. setiger, are further resolved by adding the nuclear EMB2765 and mitochondrial rps3 genes to the molecular sampling. Analyses of rps3 reveal an accelerated rate of evolution within Croton subg. Geiseleria, the only one of the four subgenera that contains numerous herbaceous, annual species. We provide morphological descriptions, species lists, and a key to the 31 sections and 10 subsections recognized in the New World. New taxa that we describe include C. sects. Alabamenses, Argyranthemi, Cordiifolii, Corinthii, Cupreati, Luetzelburgiorum, Nubigeni, Olivacei, Pachypodi, Prisci, and C. subsects. Cubenses, Jamaicenses, and Sellowiorum. Additional transfers are made to the ranks of subgenus, section, and subsection.

There are structures along their distribution (Cerqueira very few studies focusing on mammals in the 2000; Pereira and Araújo 2000; Rocha et al. 2003). coastal shrubland (e.g. Cerqueira et al. 1990; Cerqueira 2000; Bergallo et al. 2004). Research Historically, the coastal region of Brazil houses on bats in this environment is particularly scarce, most of the country’s population and is a target with six major studies to date (Fazzolari-Corrêa for urban development (Galindo-Leal & Câmara 1995; Marques 2000; Moreno et al. 2000; 2003; Rocha et al. 2003; Dean 2004). As a Mangolin 2005; Mello et al. 2005; Oprea 2006). consequence, coastal ecosystems, like restingas, The present study helps to fill the gap of knowledge are particularly threatened by human-induced on the bat fauna of coastal shrublands, a poorly habitat loss and fragmentation (Rocha & Bergallo known ecosystem associated to the Atlantic Forest.

ZooKeys 757: 69–83. https://doi.org/10.3897/ zookeys.757.21900 Abstract Anurans have close associations with environmental conditions and therefore represent an interesting vertebrate group for examining how resource availability and environmental variables influence species di- versity. Associations between habitat heterogeneity and anuran species diversity were tested in the Restinga landscapes of the Parnaíba River delta in northeastern Brazil.
