Might Heterostyly Underlie Spider Occurrence on Inflorescences? A Case Study of Palicourea rigida (Rubiaceae), a Common Shrub from Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
We carried out a research on the Palicourea rigida (Rubiaceae) inflorescences, a distylous shrub of Brazilian Cerrado. Our objective was to compare the inflorescence architectural complexity and its quality in the two floral morphs and search for any ...

Flower-Visiting Social Wasps and Plants Interaction: Network Pattern and Environmental Complexity

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
Network analysis as a tool for ecological interactions studies has been widely used since last decade. However, there are few studies on the factors that shape network patterns in communities.

Animal tracking moves community ecology: Opportunities and challenges. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anim Ecol, 2022
Eltonian and Grinnelian dynamics inferred from multi‐species tracking data. Panel (a): Tracks of five individuals from three different species reveal intraspecific and interspecific interactions through time, thereby enabling the construction of interaction topologies including both conspecifics and heterospecifics at an individual level.

Genetic structure and climate niche differentiation among populations of Leopardus geoffroyi. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Geoffroy's cat (Leopardus geoffroyi) is a small‐sized felid present in a wide variety of habitats in South America, including areas with high levels of anthropization. We identified two genetic clusters, one in the north‐northeast of the species' distribution and the other in the south‐southwest, the latter showing lower genetic variability and a more ...

Drivers of habitat availability for terrestrial mammals: Unravelling the role of livestock, land conversion and intrinsic traits in the past 50 years

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 24, Page 6900-6911, December 2023., 2023
This study investigates the impact of habitat degradation on terrestrial mammal species. By comparing historic and current distribution maps for 475 species, we found that 59% of them have less available habitat in their lost ranges, suggesting habitat loss contributed to range declines.

Circadian rhythms of hosts and their gut microbiomes: Implications for animal physiology and ecology

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 476-487, March 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Daily light–dark cycles shape the circadian physiology and behaviour of nearly all organisms, with variation in circadian phenotypes having cascading effects on individual fitness, species interactions and species co‐evolution.

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...
