ABSTRACT The fat snook Centropomus parallelus is a protandrous hermaphrodite teleost of artisanal and recreational value in the South Atlantic, vulnerable to fishing pressure and size‐selective gears. We evaluated exploitation status using size and age based overfishing indicators from recreational fishing championships and artisanal landings along the

For most traits, floral intra‐individual variation was similar between morphs and populations with different pollinator guilds (bees and hummingbirds), potentially facilitating effective pollen transfer in distylous systems. Still, greater variation in corolla length increased pollen deposition in L‐morph flowers in the bee‐pollinated population ...

Experimental Assessment of Epipelon Responses to Phosphorus Limitation in a Eutrophic Lake
We evaluated the responses of epipelic algal and cyanobacterial communities to increasing phosphorus limitation in the water column under eutrophic conditions. Nitrogen enrichment increased the N:P ratio and intensified phosphorus limitation in the water column, promoting changes in community composition. The greater contribution of cyanobacteria (e.g.,

ABSTRACT Here, we review the generic classification of Eucanthini, resulting in the redefinition of Eucanthus Westwood, 1848 and erection of two new genera. Under this new framework, Eucanthus is restricted to six North American species, while two monotypic genera are described from the Southern Hemisphere: Antoniocanthus gen. nov.

Abstract Caesalpinia desertorum was not properly typified and has long remained of uncertain taxonomic position. A critical reassessment of the original material cited in the protologue, together with historical herbarium collections and associated literature, allows us to designate a lectotype and clarify its identity.

ABSTRACT The cuticle and medulla of guard hairs exhibit distinct morphological patterns among mammalian species. To investigate this variability in marsupials from the Brazilian Amazon, we analysed guard hairs from nine Didelphimorphia species and incorporated data from an additional 25 didelphid species.

Lack of Compliance in Gillnet Fisheries Regulations Increases Risk to a Vulnerable Species
ABSTRACT This article presents an analysis of regulatory compliance in a Brazilian gillnet fishery, based on Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) tracking data. Satellite transmissions records, interpreted as proxies for gillnet haulings events, were analyzed and classified using a neural network to assess the level of compliance of the gillnet fleet.

Despite being an important fraction of any animal population, juveniles are a severely understudied group. Juveniles often need to learn an array of skills that allow them to survive independently and do so while undertaking decisions that may impact their fitness, recruitment and survival, having therefore relevant demographic implications.
