Occurrence of a Cavity‐Nesting Tropical Swallow Is Associated to Riverbed Lithology
ABSTRACT Understanding the factors shaping species distribution is a key challenge in ecology and biogeography. While dispersal limitations, environmental features, and biotic interactions are commonly recognized as key determinants of species abundance and distribution, some species exhibit patchy distributions that remain hard to explain.

ABSTRACT Presently, there are three main hypotheses to explain why the leaves of many Australian mistletoes resemble their hosts. The eco‐physiological convergence hypothesis suggests that mistletoes must manage their physiology, especially their water relations, to match those of the host, to avoid killing themselves or the host branch they have ...

First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Who prefers the dark? Daily activity of dung beetles from an Amazonian region
Daily activity patterns shape how dung beetle species coexist in Amazonian forests, revealing temporal niches that reduce competition and structure biodiversity. We compared species richness, abundance and assemblage composition of dung beetles sampled during day and night in a conserved terra‐firme forest in the Brazilian Amazon. Although richness and

ABSTRACT The Neotropical migratory fish Prochilodus nigricans plays a critical ecological and socioeconomic role in the Amazon basin. Nevertheless, little is known about its populations and the genetic diversity pattern of the species. In light of this, the current study investigates the spatial genetic structure and diversity of P.
