Thaís Guedes is a biodiversity researcher at the State University of Campinas (Unicamp) and also a researcher associate at the University of Gothenburg (The Antonelli Lab). My research interest is to understand the patterns of distribution of biodiversity and how geological and climatic events have worked to shape these patterns along the time. I am investigating these subjects on a broad scale, especially on amphibians and reptiles, with implications for conservation (www.tbguedes.com). (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Trans-disciplinary biogeography is the ideal science to understand patterns and processes that generated and maintain groups of highly complex and diverse organisms, such as amphibians and reptiles (herpetofauna), especially those that inhabit tropical regions of the globe. Advances in recent decades allowed for the huge accumulation of data on herpetofauna and important discoveries. Howe…
The Caatinga green snake, Erythrolamprus viridis (Serpentes: Dipsadidae), is terrestrial and widely distributed in the Caatinga, where it is considered an endemic species. It is an oviparous species that preferentially feeds on amphibians. Recently, distribution data for the species were made available by Guedes et al., 2014 and Nogueira et al., 2018, however we do not have detailed infor…
The organisms show individual geographic distribution patterns that not result of chance. Several past and current events are responsible for the presence of sets of taxa in a given area. The accumulation of events over time makes the reconstruction of the history of the spatial distribution of the biota a complex activity that can be explored in the light of historical biogeography. This…
The identification of natural biogeographical regions is fundamental for comparisons in broad-scale ecological and evolutionary studies, and constitutes an essential tool for conservation planning. Several recent ecological and biogeographical studies have attempted to delimit bioregions at both global and local scales, and there is a long history of regionalization schemes proposed for t…
