Because topological (e.g. incongruence) and branch length uncertainties (e.g., rate heterogeneity) are pervasive on large datasets, we relied on a set of trees instead of a single one. We did this by integrating PP backbone and spp-level trees sampled from #BEAST MCMC 3/n

#CentralAmerica has the highest speciation rates! Of #Orchids In the tropics many orchids grow epiphytically. #VascularEpiphytes #Conservation #DiversityGaps

Oncidium hastilabium is a species found in 🇨🇴🇵🇪🇻🇪 and 🇪🇨at elevations of 750 to 2200m as a warm to cool growing epiphyte. Large flowers it is currently the parent to 53 hybrids. 🌿 #orchids #orquídeas #nature #conservation

Lab poster BIFoR annual meeting: CENTA funded Zach presenting his simulation experiment on epiphyte restoration! Yes, epiphytes count for up to 50% of local floras and should also be restored!

A very busy IAVS 2024 meeting. Happy to see known faces & to meet new ones! Most fun was to show the work we are doing with EpIG: Epiphyte Inventory Group & what #epiphytes are about. With the Ecoinformatics IAVS we planned the coming years & with the IAVS_LAC we finalized this run. #AcademicService

We quantify, map and analyse wood density across tropical South America. Our analysis led by Martin Sullivan refines the east-west Amazon gradient in wood density, improves it by revealing much finer variation, & extends to Andean, Dry & Atlantic forests. nature.com/articles/s4146…
