Aim We evaluated how native vegetation cover influences the diversity of arachnid assemblages across multiple spatial scales in major Brazilian ecosystems. Location Brazil (Amazon and Atlantic rainforests, Cerrado savanna and Caatinga dry forest). Taxon Arachnida (Opiliones, Pseudoscorpiones and Scorpiones). Methods We sampled arachnids at 120 sites using active search and litter sifting. Native vegetation cover was quantified...
American Useful Plants in Post-Medieval Europe: Integrating Archaeobotanical and Historical EvidenceNARA Subscribed
The arrival of Europeans in the Americas in 1492 initiated new transatlantic connections that, through colonial expansion and trade networks, brought useful plants to Europe. This study investigates archaeobotanical and historical evidence for the introduction of American plants to Europe from the late fifteenth to the twentieth century. We compiled 183 archaeobotanical records from 14 countries, representing 24 taxa from 11 b...
Background. Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) presents a complex genetic landscape, with over 40 subtypes. These autosomal dominant disorders manifest late onset and severe disability, primarily impacting the cerebellum but also involving other nervous system structures. While a single study has linked hypothalamic atrophy to SCA3, further research is needed to confirm and/or expand this association. This study aimed to investigate...
SpiderATLAS : A Database of Spider Traits and Distributions in the Brazilian Atlantic ForestNARA Subscribed
Aim Biodiversity shortfalls related to limited knowledge about geographic distribution (Wallacean) and species traits (Raunkiæran) are extremely common in many animal groups and perhaps more evident in invertebrate groups such as spiders. This lack of knowledge could present challenges for researchers investigating the response and effects of spiders along large spatial scales, particularly in the Global South. The aim of the...
