Composición florística y estructura de un bosque húmedo premontano en el Valle Central de Costa Rica
(2001)
Se estudió la estructura y composición florística de un remanente de bosque húmedo premontano (BHP) en la Zona Protectora El Rodeo, Valle Central de Costa Rica. Se establecieron tres parcelas permanentes (1 ha. cada una) ...
Efectos de la Fragmentación del Bosque Tropical Seco Sobre el Éxito Reproductivo y la Estructura Genética del Arbol Samanea saman
Effects of Dry Tropical Forest Fragmentation on the Reproductive Success and Genetic Structure of the Tree Samanea saman
(2002)
Tropical trees are particularly vulnerable to forest fragmentation because of their low densities, self-incompatibilty system, and high rates of outbreeding. Forest fragmentation is likely to decrease gene flow, increase ...
A new phytophagous species of Eurytoma (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) attacking Werauhia gladioliflora (Bromeliales: Bromeliaceae)
(2004)
Eurytoma werauhia Gates, new species, is described and illustrated. This species was reared from the floral buds of Werauhia gladioliflora (Wendl.) (Bromeliales: Bromeliaceae), in Costa Rica. This plant represents a new ...
Reproductive Biology of the Epiphytic Bromeliad Werauhia gladioliflora in a Premontane Tropical Forest
(2005)
The floral phenology, fruit and seed production, and self-compatibility of Werauhia gladioliflora, an epiphytic bromeliad with a wide distribution, were studied in a premontane forest in the Monteverde area in Costa Rica. ...
Complex phylogeographic patterns indicate Central American origin of two widespread Mesoamerican Quercus (Fagaceae) species
(2017)
The northern Neotropical region is characterized by a heterogeneous geological and climatic history. Recent studies have shown contrasting patterns regarding the role of geographic elements as barriers that could have ...
Neither insects nor wind: ambophily in dioecious Chamaedorea palms (Arecaceae)
(2014)
Pollination of Neotropical dioecious trees is commonly related to generalist insects. Similar data for non‐tree species with separated genders are inconclusive. Recent studies on pollination of dioecious Chamaedorea palms ...
Genetic Diversity and Spatial Genetic Structure of an Epiphytic Bromeliad in Costa Rican Montane Secondary Forest Patches
(2014)
Information on genetic variation and its distribution in tropical plant populations relies mainly on studies of ground‐rooted species, while genetic information of epiphytic plants is still limited. Particularly, the effect ...
Epiphytic bromeliad communities in secondary and mature forest in a tropical premontane area
(2006)
We analyzed the differences in species richness, community composition, population structure and within-tree location of epiphytic bromeliads in contiguous secondary and mature forests in a premontane area in Costa Rica. ...
Distribución de las formas de vida en la flora costarricense
(2008)
La diversidad de plantas de un país o región se puede interpretar desde la perspectiva ecológica de las especies utilizando un sistema de clasificación por “formas de vida”. En este trabajo (1) se describe la diversidad ...
