Movement phases make a difference in habitat selection: Iberian lynx diversity of responses to human-modified landscapes. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
By examining habitat selection across five movement phases in the reintroduced Iberian lynx, our study reveals high behavioural plasticity and key differences between and among resident and non‐resident phases. This research highlights the need to distinguish movement phases in habitat selection and landscape permeability studies to effectively guide ...

Caatinga diaspores: Descriptive overview of dispersal units of seasonally dry tropical forests and woodlands. [PDF]

Ecology
Abstract Dispersal unit characteristics provide crucial insights into species ecology and are essential for the conservation and restoration of ecosystems. The Caatinga, the largest ecosystem of seasonally dry tropical forests and woodlands in South America, remains underrepresented in terms of dispersal unit data, which are often scattered across the ...

Mapping the density of giant trees in the Amazon. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Tall trees (height ≥ 60 m) are keystone elements of tropical forests, strongly influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and ecosystem resilience. Yet, their density and spatial distribution remain poorly quantified, especially in remote Amazonian regions, limiting our understanding of their ecological roles and contribution to forest–climate ...

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of European Vipers and Their Venoms From a Multi-Omic Approach. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Snake genomes attract significant attention from multiple disciplines, including medicine, drug bioprospection, and evolutionary biology. However, genomic research within the Viperidae family has mostly focused on the subfamily Crotalinae, while the true vipers (Viperinae) have largely been overlooked.

Linking rivers, mixing faunas: How artificial connectivity between the Middle and Upper Paraná River basins shapes fish diversity in a tributary of the Itaipu Reservoir, Brazil

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This work aimed to investigate the distribution and occurrence of fish species along the São Francisco Falso Braço Norte (SFFBN) River basin, a tributary of the Middle Paraná River basin now artificially connected to the Upper Paraná ecoregion, to evaluate how such connectivity may affect the biogeographic distribution and regional composition
