Multiscale Environmental Drivers of Aquatic Insect Assemblages in Cerrado Streams
Multi‐scale drivers of aquatic insect communities in Cerrado streams. The gradient (from left to right) indicates increasing spatial scale, showing that abundance is influenced by local factors (conductivity, temperature), taxonomic richness responds to agricultural land use at an intermediate scale, and community composition is structured by regional ...

ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Spermatogenesis and Morphology of the Male Reproductive Tract of the Turtle Kinosternon scorpioides
ABSTRACT The scorpion mud turtle (Kinosternon scorpioides), a freshwater chelonian widely distributed in South and Central America, presents gaps in the microscopic and ultrastructural characterisation of its male reproductive system. This study provides a comprehensive characterisation of the testes, epididymides, and deferent ducts of adult males ...

In total, we recorded 160 unique grass species across four savanna ecosystems dominated by different tree genera. These savannas support distinct grassy assemblages, but common grasses are often shared between ecosystems. ABSTRACT Southeast Asian savannas are some of the least studied ecosystems, with understanding of their function and resilience ...

We report the first confirmed record of an ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) dragging a newborn calf in a degraded forest fragment of southeastern Brazil. Using camera trap records, we reveal an opportunistic foraging event involving a vulnerable domestic prey within a highly fragmented landscape.

“Women Enlace”: Interweaving Women to Make Collective Action Possible
ABSTRACT This study engages with the contemporary debate on women's collective action through the lens of commons governance. Drawing on the theory of collective action in the management of common‐pool resources (CPRs) and on feminist ethnography with a group of rural extractivist women in the Cerrado—a vast tropical savanna biome in Brazil's Central ...

PhotoBiology Station for Plant–Light Interactions Studies in Field Conditions
ABSTRACT Light is a primary source of energy for photosynthesis and a fundamental signal that governs plant morphology and growth dynamics through well‐orchestrated signalling pathways. In field conditions, light intensity and quality, as well as other variables, constantly change throughout the day.

Regions of Climatic Stability for Neotropical Primates
Spatial distribution of climatic stability, endemism, and model uncertainty for Neotropical primates. The left panel depicts projected climatic stability (warm colours = higher proportion of species with persistent climatic suitability; cool colours = lower stability). The upper‐right panel shows endemism (warm colours = higher concentration of endemic

ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...
