Check out my first PhD publication! In this huge revision, a result from an international collaboration, we finally clear out the South American Carex sect. Junciformes taxonomy and described four new species! 👇 doi.org/10.1093/botlinnean/b…

The Pyrenees welcomed us with these nice Eriophorum latifolium-dominated wet meadows. I never thought this many botanists could have so much fun just because there were 7 species of Carex in one spot. The magic of sedges!

#MacondoLab @pablodeolavide research, together with the sedge team at @BiodiversosU, made Carex very present at #ibc2024. With talks on five symposia and several posters we have shown the many things that sedges can tell us. Congrats to us all for all the achievements!
