A taxonomic revision of the Archipini of the Caribbean (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, Tortricinae)
(2020)The Archipini fauna of the Caribbean is revised to include 33 species. Most previously described species occurring in the region are redescribed and figured, with 13 new species: Argyrotaenia brownisp. nov., A. crypticasp. ... -
Advances in the knowledge of the vegetation of Hispaniola (Caribbean Central America)
(2018)The vegetation types and floristic diversity in the Dominican Republic are analysed, a territory with a tropical climate and ombrotypes that range from dry to humid-hyperhumid, due to the Atlantic winds and the phenomenon ... -
Around the world in 26 million years : diversification and biogeography of pantropical Grass-yellow Eurema butterflies (Pieridae: Coliadinae)
(2025)Aim: Grass-yellow butterflies (Eurema) are a group of pantropical Pieridae distributed throughout Asia, Australasia, Africa and the New World. However, little is known about their diversification, including the biogeographic ... -
Bioclimatic map of the Dominican Republic
(2012)The location of the Dominican Republic between parallels 17° and 19° north means it has a tropical macroclimate. The Dominican Republic and the Republic of Haiti belong to the island of Hispaniola, which has three bioclimates: ... -

Contribution to the biogeography of the Hispaniola (Dominican Republic, Haiti)
(2010)This paper, which deals with the geological history of Hispaniola in the general framework of Central America and particularly the Caribbean Sea, aims at revealing the influence of it on other areas. The paper studies the ... -
Diablotin Pterodroma hasitata : a biography of the endangered Black-capped Petrel
(2013)The Black-capped Petrel (Pterodroma hasitata), once believed extinct throughout much of the 20th century, is now critically endangered, with breeding populations confined to Hispaniola and possibly Cuba after being extirpated ... -
Diagnóstico biofísico, socioeconómico y análisis de vulnerabilidad de los municipios Villa Los Almácigos, El Pino y Loma de Cabrera
(2023)El análisis detallado de los riesgos climáticos y la vulnerabilidad que una zona determinada, sus paisajes y sus habitantes, tienen frente a los efectos actuales y futuros del cambio climático sirve para establecer claridad. ... -
Endemic rodents of Hispaniola : biogeography and extinction timing during the Holocene
(2022)Highlights: - Nearly 70% of extinct native rodents from Hispaniola survived until the Late Holocene. - Body size of native rodents does not correlate with extinction timing. - Defaunation postdated climatic changes in the ... -
Establishment of biogeographic areas by distributing endemic flora and habitats (Dominican Republic, Haiti R.)
(2012)Despite the large number of botanical studies conducted on the flora of the Island of Hispaniola, some of which adopted a floristic or physiognomical approach with a phytosociological methodology, only few have adopted ... -
Evolutionary rate shifts in coding and regulatory regions underpin repeated adaptation to sulfidic streams in poeciliid fishes
(2024)Adaptation to extreme environments often involves the evolution of dramatic physiological changes. To better understand how organisms evolve these complex phenotypic changes, the repeatability and predictability of evolution, ... -

Extinction and biogeography in the Caribbean : new evidence from a fossil riodinid butterfly in Dominican amber
(2004)We describe a new species of extinct riodinid butterfly, Voltinia dramba, from Oligo-Miocene Dominican amber (15-25 Myr ago). This appears to be the first butterfly to be taxonomically described from amber, and the first ... -
Fossil lizards from the Dominican Republic
(1965)This is a detailed investigation into the fossil record of lizard species from the Dominican Republic. This work marks a significant contribution to the study of the island's herpetofauna, focusing on extinct lizard species ... -

Historical biogeography of endemic plants in the Caribbean and Podocarpus as a case study
(2019)Despite numerous floristic studies of the Caribbean region, the large-scale evolutionary origins of its diversity remain relatively under-explored. Here, I add to the empirical knowledge of the origin and assembly of the ... -
Historical biogeography of endemic seed plant genera in the Caribbean : Did GAARlandia play a role?
(2017)The Caribbean archipelago is a region with an extremely complex geological history and an outstanding plant diversity with high levels of endemism. The aim of this study was to better understand the historical assembly and ... -
