Summary Despite the ongoing intensive efforts on disentangling the diversity of the genus Carex (Cyperaceae) in South America, there is much still to be accomplished. In this note we studied collections from some of the main South American and North American herbaria, new field collections, and observations from the citizen platform iNaturalist, to report chorological, nomenclatural, and taxonomic notes for 16 South American C...

Mixed‐species forestry is a promising approach to enhance productivity, increase carbon sequestration, and mitigate climate change. Diverse forests, composed of species with varying structures and functional trait profiles, may have higher functional and structural diversity, which are attributes relevant to a number of mechanisms that can influence productivity. However, it remains unclear whether the context‐dependent roles...
