CONSERVAÇÃO DE RECURSOS GENÉTICOS FLORESTAIS
Os principais aspectos da conservação dos recursos genéticos florestais são abordados. Para conservação in situ, é esboçado um modelo das ações principais necessárias para dimensionar as áreas de conservação, o tamanho mínimo aceitável das populações e ...

Urbanization and food transition in the Brazilian Amazon: From wild to domesticated meat
Abstract Urbanization is expected to influence food transitions, resulting in a shift from wild foods to more domesticated foods. Concomitantly, food insecurity and urban demand for natural resources, including wildlife, are expected to increase overall, even when the per capita consumption is expected to decrease.

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.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

DNA barcoding uncovers two putative new species in Trachelyopterus (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae)
Abstract Trachelyopterus is a cryptic genus within the Neotropical catfish family Auchenipteridae with a complex history of taxonomic revisions. Despite the notable morphological and genetic similarities among its species, some studies suggest that the genus harbours greater diversity than is currently recognized, including additional species yet to be

Abstract A new species of the small‐sized armoured catfish genus Neoplecostomus is described from Neotropical Atlantic coastal drainages, in southeast Brazil. The new species can be readily diagnosed from all congeners by having the first plates of the ventral series reduced in size, rounded and ventrally displaced, resulting in a naked band between ...

Abstract Pyrrhulina australis Eigenmann & Kennedy, 1903, is widely distributed across the main hydrographic basins of South America. The taxonomic integrity of this species is nevertheless challenged by the lack of clear diagnostic characters, its marked geographic variation and the morphological overlap with its congeners. In this context, the present
