Additionally, the low number of species per genus and the large number of families represented by a single species highlight the transitional nature of the hillside forests flora of Uruguay (Haretche et al. 2012). This indicates the presence of interdigitations of the Atlantic forest biome in ...
1.(Animals) any arboreal frog of the familyHylidae, chiefly of SE Asia, Australia, and America. They are strong jumpers and have long toes ending in adhesive discs, which assist in climbing 2.(Animals) any of various other arboreal frogs of different families ...
What genus and species was the fossil Lucy? What is ethnic identity? What is social evolutionary theory in anthropology? What is the relationship between the fields of taxonomy, systematics, and cladistics? What kind of tree was in the Garden of Eden? What languages are part of the Indo-Euro...
Trees structure the Earth’s most biodiverse ecosystem, tropical forests. The vast number of tree species presents a formidable challenge to understanding these forests, including their response to environmental change, as very little is known about most
The leaves of a tree, also called tips, can be species, populations, individuals, or even genes. If the tips represent a formally named group, they are called taxa (singular: taxon). A ‘taxon’ is a group of organisms at any hierarchical rank, such as a family, genus, or species. ...

Life is a chemical reaction. Three major transitions in early evolution are considered without recourse to a tree of life. The origin of prokaryotes required a steady supply of energy and electrons, probably in the form of molecular hydrogen stemming fro
The phylogenetic relationships of the genus Squalius are believed to be well established based on the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene. Here, we inferred the phylogenetic relationships of all species inhabiting most of the western Iberia river systems using a nuclear multi-locus approach and different ...
More than 400plant speciesbelonging to 45 plant families have been identified and reported from temperate to tropical regions with the ability to tolerate and hyper-accumulateheavy metals. These plants have been considered suitable for soil stabilisation and extraction of heavy metals[45]. Plants used...
Forests constitute important ecosystems in the global carbon cycle. However, how trees and environmental conditions interact to determine the amount of organic carbon stored in forest soils is a hotly debated subject. In particular, how tree species infl
