ニューヨーク植物園さんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク植物園Instagram)「The Atlantic Coastal Forest of Brazil is one of the world's biodiversity hotspots, containing a great number of species endemic to its geographic area—yet deforestation has reduced it to less than 5% of its original size. This Friday, hear from Wayt Thomas, Ph.D., as he provides a fascinating perspective on long-term taxonomic and floristic research in the forest, and collaborations with Brazilian scientists and community members to advance the understanding and preservation of this region's unique diversity. . For 37 years, Dr. Thomas, NYBG Curator Emeritus, has led research to discover and preserve the plants of the highly threatened Atlantic Coastal Forest. An expert on the Sedge family (Cyperaceae), Dr. Thomas has also led investigations into the complex evolutionary history of beak-sedges (Rhynchospora) worldwide.
