This weird alien thing is a whole preserved specimen of Welwitschia mirabilis hosted at @BGM_coll_res. Note the large underground part that cannot be observed in the pics of living plants: most of the body of Welwitschia is in fact a kind of giant carrot!

🌱 Could Homer's moly be an early record of an ethnobotanical complex? Discover the cultural taxon that may have shaped the identity of the mysterious plant through centuries-old oral traditions

The Homeric plant moly is a mysterious herb mentioned in Book 10 of the Odyssey. In the early 1980s, a pharmacological thesis to identify the plant was put forward for the first time, regarding the...

The 1980s Pharmacological Thesis Revisited 📚 Decades ago, the snowdrop was proposed as candidate for Homer's moly, inspired by its AChE-inhibiting properties. We question this assimilation and delve into interdisciplinary literature to present a compelling case. #Pharmacology

Es inaudito el retraso y desanima para que sigamos proponiendo nuevas incorporaciones muy necesarias @mitecogob
¿Sabes cuánto tiempo se tarda en proteger una especie? Las propuestas de @SEBiCoP a @mitecogob en 2021, 2022 y 2023, pendientes de ser incorporadas al #CEEA ¿será solo cosa de la burocracia? 👇🏻

This is largely the reason why PD performs well in capturing realized plant benefits, as we showed in a previous publication:

Nature Ecology & Evolution - Maximum levels of global plant phylogenetic diversity capture more human benefits and at higher diversity levels than does random selection of taxa.

Happy to share my latest publication! Here, I show that conserving evolutionarily distinct plants is good not only because they are evolutionarily "original"; they also tend to be multi-beneficial! @GloCEE_EcoEvo @IUCN_TreeOfLife
