Semiochemical and Communication Ecology of the Emerald Ash Borer, Agrilus planipennis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2019
Knowledge of buprestid chemical ecology is sparse but the appearance of the invasive pest Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire in North America has provided the impetus to study in detail the semiochemistry and ecology of this important buprestid.

Differences in leaf thermoregulation and water use strategies between three co‐occurring Atlantic forest tree species

open access: yesPlant, Cell and Environment, 2018
In the first study of leaf energy balance in tropical montane forests, we observed current leaf temperature patterns in the Atlantic forest, Brazil, and assessed whether and why patterns may vary among species.

Monitoring Spruce Budworm with Light Traps: The Effect of Trap Position

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2014
Daily records of adult spruce budworms, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clemens) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), captured at light traps at multiple locations in New Brunswick in the 1970s, are analyzed in relation to the physical position of light traps (tree ...

Identification key for anuran amphibians in a protected area in the northeastern Atlantic Forest

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2021
The identification of anuran amphibians is still a challenge in megadiverse assemblages. In the Neotropics, the Atlantic Forest harbors more than 600 anuran species, and many studies in this ecoregion report anuran assemblages surpassing 30 species ...

Morphological characterization and taxonomic key of tadpoles (Amphibia: Anura) from the northern region of the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesBiota Neotropica, 2020
: Although anuran tadpoles are widely distributed and abundant in tropical aquatic habitats, there is a lack of taxonomic keys for the Atlantic Forest. Herein, we developed a dichotomous key for identifying the tadpoles for all species with known larval ...

Fragmentation impairs the microclimate buffering effect of tropical forests. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Tropical forest species are among the most sensitive to changing climatic conditions, and the forest they inhabit helps to buffer their microclimate from the variable climatic conditions outside the forest.

Insights from a large-scale inventory in the southern Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yes, 2020
A key issue in large-area inventories is defining a suitable sampling design and the effort required to obtain reliable estimates of species richness and forest attributes, especially in species-diverse forests.

Phylogeography of the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesRevista da Biologia, 2018
A filogeografia procura entender os princípios e os processos que governam a distribuição geográfica de linhagens intra-específicas ou de espécies próximas, baseada na distribuição espacial de genealogias gênicas. Estudos filogeográficos de alguns organismos da Mata Atlântica (MA) publicados até o momento têm apontado para a existência de três ...
