Myrmecophyly is best documented among tropical epiphytes, and myrmecotrophy occurs especially among domatia-forming plants. We report the case of Polytaenium cajenense with "external" domatia and its use by the same symbiont ant as its host Cordia nodosa . This case is interpreted as the result of stochastic events and their relations to pre-existi...

Chemical and pharmacological investigations were performed on the stems of Cordia batesii (Boraginaeae); chemical studies included quantum calculations applied on a newly described compound.
Results
A new derivative of allantoin (1) named batesiin (2) was characterized. Thirteen other known compounds involving allantoin (1) were either...
La habilidad de describir la forma y tamaño de la corona de los árboles es un importante pre-requisito para la estimación de la estabilidad de los árboles de un bosque. Este artículo describe modelos de corona para el Laurel (Cordia alliodora), adaptadas a las condiciones de crecimiento de sistemas agroforestales. La base de datos empíricos incluye...
