Taxonomic delimitation of hemicryptophytic Dalechampia L. (Euphorbiaceae) in the Brazilian Cerrado
Project summary:
This project resolves long-standing taxonomic uncertainty in hemicryptophytic Dalechampia of the Brazilian Cerrado, a group of fire-adapted, ground-bud species with poorly defined boundaries. By integrating morphology, herbarium revision, fieldwork, and phylogenomics, it stabilizes species delimitation, nomenclature, and identification in a threatened biodiversity hotspot.
