Hosts and vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing units in the Chagas disease endemic region of the Paraguayan Chaco. [PDF]
Active Trypanosoma cruzi transmission persists in the Gran Chaco region, which is considered hyperendemic for Chagas disease. Understanding domestic and sylvatic transmission cycles and therefore the relationship between vectors and mammalian hosts is ...

Climbing the urban canopy: Camera trap insights into mammal activity and habitat use
Abstract Urbanization profoundly impacts wildlife behavior and habitat use. While the effects of urbanization on diel activity patterns and mammal interactions have been well studied at the ground level, little is known about spatiotemporal patterns above the ground.

Urbanization and habitat fragmentation reshape mammal communities on Santa Catarina Island, one of the largest Atlantic Forest islands in Brazil. Using camera traps across protected forest patches, we show that species richness declines with urban and unvegetated matrices, while abundance increases in smaller and more isolated fragments dominated by ...

Padrão de atividade e segregação temporal entre mamíferos de médio e grande porte na Mata Atlântica [PDF]
Os organismos de uma comunidade diferem quanto ao seu nicho trófico, espacial ou temporal para coexistirem. A descrição do padrão de atividade é fundamental para compreensão do nicho temporal e nos auxilia no entendimento dos mecanismos que regulam a ...
