The paper identifies two genetically distinct clusters of Plasmodium malariae in Africa and finds evidence of adaptive evolution in these populations.

The paper quantifies how forest degradation affects trophic functioning in Amazonian vertebrate food webs, showing shifts in carnivory and herbivory despite stable biodiversity metrics.

The paper investigates the evolutionary history and population genetics of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium simium in Latin America, revealing host shifts and genetic exchanges between the species.

This study establishes a DNA barcode library for Culex mosquitoes in French Guiana using COI sequences, identifies two cryptic species, and evaluates molecular delimitation methods.

The paper uses genomic data to show that Amazonian manatees have colonized the Guianas coastline and hybridized with West Indian manatees, supporting the need for a special conservation area.
