We are delighted to work in several nice places in Southeastern Brazil. It is our privilege to "work" on such beautiful and pleasant sites. Our main research site is conducted at Serra do Cipó. We also study plant ecology at the Estação Ecológica de Pirapitinga, Serra do Rola-Moça, Serra do Cabral, granitic inselbergs, Parque Estadual do Rio Doce and wherever nice plants are.
