(BioMed Central, 2018-12-07)
Background: The most common infusion in southern Latin-American countries is prepared with dried leaves of Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil., an aboriginal ancestral beverage known for its high polyphenols concentration ...
Population fluctuation of Culicoides insignis Lutz (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Posadas, Misiones, ArgentinaFluctuación poblacional de Culicoides insignis (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) en Posadas, Misiones, Argentina
(Sociedad Entomológica Argentina, 2018-12-27)
En Argentina, la distribución de la enfermedad del Virus de la Lengua Azul se encuentra restringida al noreste del país. En la región Neotropical el principal vector sería Culicoides insignis Lutz. El objetivo de este ...
Uncovering the evolutionary history of neo-XY sex chromosomes in the grasshopper Ronderosia bergii (Orthoptera, Melanoplinae) through satellite DNA analysis
(BioMed Central, 2018-01-08)
Background Neo-sex chromosome systems arose independently multiple times in evolution, presenting the remarkable characteristic of repetitive DNAs accumulation. Among grasshoppers, occurrence of neo-XY was repeatedly noticed ...
What happened in the South American Gran Chaco? Diversification of the endemic frog genus Lepidobatrachus Budgett, 1899 (Anura: Ceratophryidae)
(Elsevier, 2018)
The Chaco is one the most neglected and least studied regions of the world. This highly-seasonal semiarid biome is an extensive continuous plain without any geographic barrier, and in spite of its high species diversity, ...
Trophic structure of frugivorous bats in the Neotropics : emergent patterns in evolutionary history
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, 2018-01-31)
1. Knowing the relative importance of phylogeny in dietary specialisation in frugivorous bats is key to understanding the ecological and evolutionary processes that drove their diversification and to elucidating the ...
When the cure kills—CBD limits biodiversity research : national laws fearing biopiracy squelch taxonomy studies
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2018-06-29)
The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) commits its 196 nation parties to conserve biological diversity, use its components sustainably, and share fairly and equitably the benefits from the utilization of genetic ...
Hyla prasina Burmeister, 1856 meets the requirements of Article 23.9.1 of the Code for a reversal of precedence over Hyla quoyi Bory de Saint-Vincent, 1828 (Anura, Hylidae)

La oxidación anódica de titanio en electrolitos conteniendo fluoruro es una técnica económica para obtener recubrimientos nanotubulares inmovilizados de TiO2 de elevada área superficial. En el presente trabajo, se sintetizaron ...
Integrative analysis of chromosome banding, telomere localization and molecular genetics in the highly variable Ctenomys of the Corrientes group (Rodentia; Ctenomyidae)
(Springer, 2018-08-03)
The genus Ctenomys comprises about 70 species with great chromosome diversity. The Corrientes group is one of the most chromosomally variable lineages in the genus, where the diploid number (2n) varies from 41 to 70. In ...
