The aim of the ecospat package is to make available novel tools and methods to support
spatial analyses and modeling of species niches and distributions in a coherent workflow …

Based on a review of literature related to the biological diversity of the inter-Andean
Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests of the Marañón valley (ISDTFM), located in the regions of …

A well-known issue in phylogenetics is discordance among gene trees, species trees,
morphology, and other data types. Gene-tree discordance is often caused by incomplete …

In this study, we report species diversity and endemism of the poorly known but highly
diverse Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest (SDTF) flora of the Marañón valley in northern Peru …

A checklist of the amphibians and reptiles of 35 localities situated in the northern Peruvian
dry forest valley of the Marañón River and its tributaries, containing 14 species of …

 Abstract A solid basis to address the conservation challenges of amphibians requires an
increased knowledge on their natural history and biology. Recent data on reproductive …

Based on morphological features, genetic distances, and phylogenetic relationships, we
report the discovery of two new species of Enyalioides from the montane forest of Cordillera …

Leptodeira is one of the most widespread and taxonomically problematic snake taxa in the
Americas. Here we describe a new species of Leptodeira from the Andes of southern …

An integrative taxonomic approach based on morphology, molecular analyses, and climatic
niche modeling was used to uncover cryptic diversity in the phyllodactylid gecko species …

The tropical Andes are known to be the richest and most diverse place on earth. This
mountainous region covers almost one third of the Peruvian territory, and its herpetofauna …
