Divergence Across Niche Dimensions Reveals Species' Ecological Roles. [PDF]
Ecol LettNatural history gaps hinder our understanding of species' ecological roles and their contributions to ecosystem processes. Using an integrative framework, we analysed multiple niche dimensions of co‐occurring xenarthran insectivores, revealing divergent trophic, spatial and temporal patterns that reflect distinct ecological roles. Our results challenge

An oversimplification of physiological principles leads to flawed macroecological analyses. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 Macrophysiological analyses are useful to predict current and future range limits and improve our understanding of endotherm macroecology, but such analyses too often rely on oversimplifications of endothermic thermoregulatory and energetic physiology, which lessens their applicability.

Identifying hotspots and priority areas for xenarthran research and conservation
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 12, Page 2778-2790, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Limited funds for conservation and research require the development of prioritization schemes. Traditionally, biodiversity metrics were used to delineate priority areas; however, a growing realization emphasizes that logistic factors should be also considered.

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 23, Page 6992-7008, December 2022., 2022 We combined trait‐based and correlative approaches to assign risks to species, taxonomic orders, and functional groups of terrestrial mammals in Mexico, under climate change (CC) and land‐use/cover change (LUCC) scenarios. Risk scores were obtained as a function of vulnerability, exposure, and hazard, using the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...

Local abundances of terrestrial mammal and bird species around indigenous villages in Suriname
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Hunting is an important threat to tropical wildlife, yet many people are dependent on forest fauna for protein provisioning. We analyzed abundances of terrestrial mammal and bird species around four indigenous villages in the south of Suriname, using camera trap data and the Royle–Nichols abundance model.
