ABSTRACT Resource availability and predictability can shape trophic organization in ecological communities. In livestock pastures, cattle dung represents a highly abundant and predictable trophic subsidy for dung beetles, potentially promoting generalist foraging strategies. Here, we test how cattle exclusion affects trophic organization in dung beetle

La distribución de la an biofauna santafesina (ranas, sapos, escuerzos y cecilias) sigue un patrón latitudinal, con una disminución de la riqueza de especies hacia el sur y una penetración de muchos taxones por medio del corredor biológico que representa el río Paraná y sus humedales (Ghirardi y López, 2017).

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Males of Hylodes perere emit territorial calls ranging from simple to complex combinations of peep (A) and squeal (B) notes, often accompanied by visual signals. Because note A resembles advertisement call notes whereas note B resembles fighting calls, variations in territorial calls may represent a behavioral continuum conveying different levels of ...

ABSTRACT Aim We evaluated how native vegetation cover influences the diversity of arachnid assemblages across multiple spatial scales in major Brazilian ecosystems. Location Brazil (Amazon and Atlantic rainforests, Cerrado savanna and Caatinga dry forest). Taxon Arachnida (Opiliones, Pseudoscorpiones and Scorpiones). Methods We sampled arachnids at 120

In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...
