Kogia Records in Brazilian Equatorial and Southwestern Atlantic Oceans

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales are cryptic cetaceans characterized by inconspicuous surfacing behavior, small group sizes, and deep‐diving habits, making visual detection particularly challenging. Here, we present the first broad‐scale passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) assessment of Kogia spp.

Predation of Fruit Fly Larvae Anastrepha (Diptera: Tephritidae) by Ants in Grove

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Based on evidence that ants are population regulatory agents, we examined their efficiency in predation of fruit fly larvae Anastrepha Schiner, 1868 (Diptera: Tephritidae). Hence, we considered the differences among species of fruit trees, the degree of soil compaction, and the content of soil moisture as variables that would explain predation by ants ...

Oro‐Facial Contact Behaviors in Wild White Bald‐Headed Uakaris (Cacajao calvus): First Documentation of Direct Facial Contact and Facial Investigation in Pitheciidae

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
We document the first instances of direct oro‐facial contact and facial investigation in wild Cacajao calvus. These rare observations expand the social repertoire of Pitheciidae, suggesting that close‐range tactile communication complements the visual signaling of their distinctive red faces.

Spatial Ecology of Jaguars in a Coastal Amazon Island Ecosystem

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACTUnderstanding the spatial ecology of large carnivores is critical for conservation, particularly in insular or fragmented systems where movement is constrained. Jaguars (Panthera onca) are especially informative because their behavior and diet are highly flexible in response to local ecological conditions.

Wasp and Ant Nests: Who Really Protects Whom? New Insights From Amazonian Forests

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Studies of animal behaviour are often biased towards species that are large‐bodied or have broad geographic ranges, as these are easier to observe in nature. Consequently, our understanding of behavioural ecology is shaped by such biases, even though these studies have provided important insights.
