    Traditional uses and importance of Strychnos L. (Loganiaceae): A cross-cultural and spatial variation study in Benin

    Trees, Forests and People

    Strychnos spp. are multipurpose wild plants widely distributed across sub-Saharan countries. Their fruits, seeds, and stems are the most exploited parts, which exposes them to local extinction risk. Unfortunately, they have been scientifically neglected in Benin. To contribute to their valorization …

    Stocking density, growth, and survival of Hoplobatrachus occipitalis froglets in captivity

    Academia Environmental Sciences and Sustainability

    Stocking density is one of the most important factors to consider when rearing anurans. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of stocking density on the survival and growth of Hoplobatrachus occipitalis (Günther, 1858) froglets reared in captivity. The experiment was conducted in circula…

    The Latitudinal Biotic Interaction Hypothesis revisited: contrasting latitudinal richness gradients in actively vs. passively accumulated interaction …

    BMC Ecology and Evolution

    Background Contrasting hypotheses suggest that the number of biotic interactions per species could either increase towards the equator due to the increasing richness of potential interaction partners (Neutral theory), or decrease in the tropics due to increased biotic competition (Latitudinal Biotic…
