Ecological and Morphological Traits Determine Community‐Wide Responses of Birds to Climate Change in a Tropical Dry Forest

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We evaluate the potential consequences of climate change on the Caatinga Dry Forest, asking how the future climate would affect its avifauna under three different carbon emission scenarios. First, we evaluate potential climate‐induced distributional changes.

The preference for energetic resources is positively associated with predatory activity in ants

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 921-932, October 2025.
We found that ants exhibit a stronger preference for foraging for carbohydrates and lipids (energetic nutrients) compared to amino acids. The increase in foraging for energetic nutrients compared to amino acids is positively correlated with foraging in larvae (insect predation). The nutrient preference between foraging for energetic nutrients and amino

Climate Change in the Brazilian Cerrado: A Looming Threat to Terrestrial Biodiversity

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, Volume 16, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Due to climate change, the Brazilian Cerrado, a global biodiversity hotspot, is becoming hotter and drier, with longer and more intense dry seasons. This alters biodiversity by altering plant physiology, ecological interactions, and species distribution, creating more homogeneous and less diverse communities.

Hide and Seek: Species Detectability in a Biodiversity Hotspot Increased by Environmental DNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
We demonstrated through Bayesian modeling that eDNA metabarcoding offers equivalent or higher detectability than traditional field inventory techniques for anuran species in a biodiversity hotspot. The number of recorded species was also higher in seven out of ten sampled streams.

Fauna and conservation in the context of formal education: a study of urban and rural students in the semi-arid region of Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine, 2020
Background In addition to playing a key role in the dynamics of ecosystems, animal diversity, especially that of wild vertebrates, is intimately linked with human evolutionary history, which has resulted in diverse interactions that must be emphasized in
