Aim Forest composition and distribution are determined by a myriad of factors, including climate. As models tropical rain forest, palms often used as indicator taxa, particularly the Mauritiinae. We question, what characterizes Mauritiinae pollen in global fossil record? And when did become endemic to South America? Location Global tropics. Taxon (Arecaceae: Lepidocaryeae). Methods Pollen trait...

The mangrove communities of the Caribbean region are considered descendants former pantropical Late-Cretaceous mangroves that underwent regional differentiation after tectonic closure Tethys Sea. southern area has been cradle Neotropical mangroves. These inferences were based mainly on qualitative evidence, such as presence/absence fossils showing botanical affinities with present-day taxa. How...

Abstract Peatland pole forest is the most carbon-dense ecosystem in Amazonia, but its spatial distribution and species composition are poorly known. To address this knowledge gap, we quantified variation floristic composition, peat thickness, amount of carbon stored above below ground 102 plots 53 transects northern Peruvian Amazonia. This large dataset includes 571 reference points thickness m...
