The Importance of Environmental Heterogeneity in Evaluating the Conservation Status of Two Frog Species in a Changing Amazonian Interfluve

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 60-70, February 2026.
Identifying the most effective criterion to assess the conservation status of vulnerable species in threatened tropical regions is crucial to evaluate recovery plans. We investigated the influence of environmental heterogeneity on the extent of occurrence (EOO), area of occupied habitat (AOH), and density variation of two Amazonian riparian frog ...

Local and scientific knowledge in the school context: characterization and content of published works

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine, 2020
Background Bridging the gap between local and scientific knowledge can have useful implications in the teaching-learning process because it can create environments conducive to the valorization of sociocultural diversity in schools.

SpiderATLAS: A Database of Spider Traits and Distributions in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Biodiversity shortfalls related to limited knowledge about geographic distribution (Wallacean) and species traits (Raunkiæran) are extremely common in many animal groups and perhaps more evident in invertebrate groups such as spiders. This lack of knowledge could present challenges for researchers investigating the response and effects of ...

Etnobiologia utilizada como ferramenta para a prática da Educação Ambiental

Revista Sergipana de Educação Ambiental, 2018
A etnobiologia busca registrar o conhecimento do homem acercado ambiente e a forma como manipula os recursos da biota naqual ele se encontra. Neste contexto, a biodiversidade pertencetanto ao domínio do natural quanto do cultural, mas é a cultura,como constructo humano, que permite às populações tradicionaisentendê-la, representá-la mentalmente ...

Local Environmental Variables Predict Fish Species Richness and Composition in Sand Beaches of a Neotropical River

River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 1949-1958, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Local and regional species diversity is influenced by historical factors, resource availability, biotic interactions, the presence of resources, and adequate environmental conditions. We evaluated the effects of local environmental variables and spatial structure on fish species richness and composition along sandy beaches of a Neotropical ...

Spatial distribution pattern of the endangered endemic cycad Ceratozamia fuscoviridis (Zamiaceae) in central Mexico

Plant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 572-583, November 2025.
Spatial distribution pattern were studied for Ceratozamia fuscoviridis, an endangered species in Mexico, based on Ripley's K t and K 12 analysis. Clumped spatial distribution patters was found in individuals of all populations, suggesting low interaction with predators/dispersers and/or evidence of suitable microsites for cycads.

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

Ecological 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
