A New Species of Werauhia (Bromeliaceae: Tillandsioideae) from Montane Cloud Forests of Costa Rica
(2023)
Werauhia oenophylla Cascante & J. F.
Morales (Bromeliaceae), a new species of Tillandsioid
epiphytic bromeliad, is described from the montane
forests of Costa Rica. The new species is related to W.
umbrosa (L. B. Sm.) ...
Elevational and seasonal patterns of plant pollinator networks in two highland tropical ecosystems in Costa Rica
(2024-01-11)
Many plant species in high montane ecosystems rely on animal pollination for sexual repro- duction, however, our understanding of plant-pollinator interactions in tropical montane hab- itats is still limited. We compared ...
Sistemas reproductivos en bromelias epífitas del género Werauhia J.R. Grant (Bromeliaceae: Tillandsioideae): aseguramiento reproductivo y mecanismos de coexistencia reproductiva
(2021)
La auto-fertilización es un cambio evolutivo en los sistemas reproductivos sexuales de las plantas con flores que conlleva el surgimiento de auto-compatibilidad y la capacidad de auto-polinización autónoma. Este fenómeno ...
Selfing in epiphytic bromeliads compensates for the limited pollination services provided by nectarivorous bats in a neotropical montane forest
(2024-02)
Plants with specialized pollination systems frequently exhibit adaptations for self-pollination, and this contradictory situation has been explained in terms of the reproductive assurance function of selfing. In the ...
Blooming plant species diversity patterns in two adjacent Costa Rican highland ecosystems
(2023-01-12)
The Costa Rican Paramo is a unique ecosystem with high levels of endemism that is geographically isolated from the Andean Paramos. Paramo ecosystems occur above Montane Forests, below the permanent snow level, and their ...
A Review of Breeding Systems in the Pineapple Family (Bromeliaceae, Poales)
(2023-07-05)
Breeding systems play an essential role in plant sexual reproduction and influence speciation and extinction processes. However, our understanding of the breeding systems for particular neotropical angiosperm families is ...
