Abiotic drivers of co‐occurrence and diversity patterns of Calopterygidae species in Amazonian protected freshwaters

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 235-249, April 2026.
Species co‐occurrences rely on their ability to explore similar or distinct available resources, and possible niche overlap can prevent their presence and establishment in a given site Damselflies of the Calopterygidae family demonstrated negative co‐occurrences in streams inside and outside PAs, highlighting that their ecological similarity is ...

Conscientização e cooperação nos comportamentos pró-ambientais: a conservação da água em foco

open access: yes, 2021
Environmental conservation involves some cost (in terms of time and actions) on the part of individuals, while being influenced by the groups (in terms of beliefs, ideas and values) to which they belong.

Hidden Waters, Unique Communities: Subterranean Zooplankton Beta Diversity in the Caatinga Drylands

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Subterranean waters are important but understudied biodiversity reservoirs, particularly in the semi‐arid Caatinga biome. We quantified the biological uniqueness of zooplankton communities in these groundwater‐dependent systems and investigated how environmental conditions shape beta diversity.

Monitoring small‐scale fisheries through participatory, app‐based surveys in the tropical archipelago of São Tomé and Príncipe

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Small Island Developing States have limited capacity to monitor Small Scale Fisheries, despite their high dependence on marine resources. Participatory monitoring of Small Scale Fisheries can fill data gaps while integrating resource users into fisheries management.

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

Local knowledge enhances the sustainability of interconnected fisheries

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our modelling approach allows managers to compare alternative conservation strategies under different socio‐ecological scenarios, highlighting trade‐offs and guiding investment of effort and resources. While immediately valuable for pirarucu management in the Middle Juruá, the framework scales across tiers of applicability, each requiring progressively

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
The most comprehensive phylogeny for Adelpha reveals that it is not monophyletic, supporting the description of the new genus Adelphina for the alala‐group. The rate of mimicry evolution increases towards the tropics, consistent with the hypothesis of stronger biotic interactions near the equator.

The Influence of Dominant Habitats on Termite Species Diversity and Community Structure in the Brazilian Savanna

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 12, December 2025.
We investigated the diversity and composition of termites across various habitats in the Brazilian Savanna. Studies like the one presented here enhance our understanding of the relationships and dynamics between termites and their environments. We found that termite communities were quite distinct, emphasising the importance of considering open ...
