A dynamic continental moisture gradient drove Amazonian bird diversification
Silva, Sofia Marques; Townsend Peterson, A.; Carneiro, Lincoln Silva; Burlamaqui, Tibério César Tortola; Ribas, Camila Cherem; Sousa-Neves, TiagoThe Amazon is the primary source of Neotropical diversity and a nexus for discussions on processes that drive biotic diversification. Biogeographers have focused on the roles of rivers and Pleistocene climate change in explaining high rates of speciation. We combine phylogeographic and niche-based paleodistributional projections for 23 upland terra firme forest bird lineages from across the Amazon to derive a n...
Divide to conquer: A complex pattern of biodiversity depicted by vertebrate com...
Silva, Sofia Marques; Moraes-Barros, Nadia; Ribas, Camila Cherem; Ferrand, Nuno; Morgante, João StenghelThe identification of northern and southern components in different vertebrate species led researchers to accept a two-component hypothesis for the Brazilian Atlantic forest (BAF). Nevertheless, neither a formal proposal nor a meta-analysis to confirm this coincidence was ever made. Our main objective here was therefore to systematically test in how many vertebrate components the BAF could be divided by analysi...
Delimiting priority areas for the conservation of endemic and threatened Neotro...
Carvalho, Dorinny Lisboa de; Neves, Tiago Sousa-; Cerqueira, Pablo Vieira; Gonsioroski, Gustavo; Silva, Sofia Marques; Silva, Daniel PaivaO conhecimento da distribuição espaço-temporal da biodiversidade ainda é muito incompleto nos trópicos. Este é um dos principais problemas que impedem a avaliação e a eficácia das ações de conservação. Regiões tropicais mega variadas estão sendo expostas a mudanças ambientais rápidas e profundas, e a quantidade de recursos disponíveis para descrever a distribuição de espécies é geralmente limitada. Assim, os tr...
