New paper in Taxon!
We are delighted to share our latest article, “From zero to TEN: Building a community of Taxonomic Experts”, now published in TAXON. In this paper, we present our collaborative journey, from the Convolvulaceae Network to the formal establishment of the Convolvulaceae Taxonomic Expert Network (TEN), and reflect on how collective effort, inclusivity, and international cooperation can strengthen taxonomy at a global scale. We hope our experience inspires further collaboration across regions, disciplines, and communities within the scientific field.

Recently, researchers from our group detected what appears to be a recent invasion of *Ipomoea obscura* in South America. This species is native to tropical Africa and Asia, and is considered invasive in Australia and Central America.
The new population was found in the state of Maranhão, along Brazil’s northern coast. 🇧🇷
Researchers are now seeking additional records of this species across the country to better understand its invasive potential and the risks it may pose to local biodiversity.
