Is climate change threatening the habitat distribution of the critically endangered tree species Swietenia macrophylla and Cedrela odorata in Ecuador?
Swietenia macrophylla and Cedrela odorata (Meliaceae) are CITES-listed tropical timber species in Ecuador due to their high commercial value and extensive international trade. Thus, their populations have declined substantially as a consequence of selective logging and climate change. In this context, assessing their potential distribution under future climatic scenarios is essential for developing effective conservation and management strategies…
State of knowledge of bryology and ethnobryology in Ecuador: A systematic review for three decades (1990-2025)
Background: Bryophytes are a highly diverse group, with approximately 23,000 species worldwide and about 1,650 species recorded in Ecuador, playing key roles in biodiversity, biomass, and ecosystem functioning. Bryology is the discipline that studies bryophytes, including ethnobryology, which focuses on the traditional uses of these organisms.

Using data from two surveys of political elites between 2011 and 2018, the perceptions of national and re…
Socio-demographic determinants of traditional knowledge of medicinal plants in the Andean region of Ecuador
Background: Ethnobotany studies provide preservation of traditional knowledge related with plant use with a pharmacovigilance prospective, where socio-demographic and educational factors have shaped traditional knowledge of medicinal plants at a broad level. Methods: This study presents information on the use of medicinal plants and their relationship with socio-demographic factors in six Andean localities in northern and southern Ecuador. Data w…
Fragmentación y polarización parlamentaria en España: La evolución en el Congreso y autonomías (1979-2022)
La fragmentación y la polarización en el sistema parlamentario español se habían analizado hasta ahora con limitaciones temporales o territoriales. En este trabajo, se exponen los niveles de fragmentación y polarización ideológica en el Congreso de los Diputados y en las cámaras de las 17 comunidades autónomas desde 1979 a 2022. Los hallazgos permiten identificar qué cámaras están más fragmentadas, dónde ha habido más polarización y cómo han evol…
Exploring the ethnobiological practices of fire in three natural regions of Ecuador, through the integration of traditional knowledge and scientific approaches
This study examines the convergence between traditional and scientific knowledge regarding the use of fire and its potential to trigger wildfires, with possible impacts on ecosystems and human well-being. The research encompasses three distinct natural regions of Ecuador: the coast, the highlands, and the Amazon. Data on traditional fire use were collected through semi-structured interviews with 791 members from five local communities. These data…
Institutional Factors and Agreement in Lawmaking
Contemporary democracies are undergoing a period of rising levels of polarization and fragmentation. At the same time, the degree of conflict in several parliaments, particularly in Europe, has significantly increased. Despite this, we know very little about conflict and consensus-building in parliaments. In this article, we analyze the degree of agreement in lawmaking in Spanish national and regional parliaments from 1977 to 2023. Using models f…
