Spatiotemporal trends in floral visitation and interaction networks reveal shifting niches for bats in a Neotropical savanna

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 7, Page 1442-1455, July 2023., 2023
The article reveals that the temporal and spatial axes are important drivers of the floral‐visitor niche of anthophilous bats in a Neotropical savanna, defining the structure of their interaction networks with plants. These findings may aid in the management of the endangered Cerrado bat Lonchophylla dekeyseri. Abstract Flower‐vising bats are important

Taste for pollen comes in different shapes: Consumption by tadpoles from three divergent ecomorphotypes

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 320, Issue 1, Page 42-52, May 2023., 2023
We studied pollen consumption and breakage of pollen grains by tadpoles of three different ecomorphotypes likely to influence ease of access to different feeding microhabitats. We found tadpoles adapted to feed on the water surface (where pollen is first available to aquatic food webs) to eat more pollen and break relatively more grains, which is ...

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 ...

Timing and magnitude of climate‐driven range shifts in transboundary fish stocks challenge their management

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 2312-2326, April 2022., 2022
We use model projections to explore the timing and intensity in the distribution of marine fish stocks that are shared across the world's Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ). Our findings suggest that many shared stocks’ distribution and catch are expected to change in most EEZs by 2030.

A novel therapeutic diet can significantly reduce the medication score and pruritus of dogs with atopic dermatitis during a nine‐month controlled study

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 55-e18, February 2022., 2022
Background – Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common chronic relapsing pruritic skin disease for which management commonly relies on life‐long use of immunomodulatory drugs. A number of the medications used are associated with adverse effects and the potential for complications during long‐term use.

Assessing the camera trap methodologies used to estimate density of unmarked populations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 8, Page 1583-1592, August 2021., 2021
Our results show that all of the methods examined can work well, with each having particular strengths and weaknesses. Broadly, Random Encounter and Staying Time (REST) could be recommended in scenarios of high abundance, Distance Sampling with camera traps (CT‐DS) in those of low abundance while Random Encounter Model (REM) can be recommended when ...

Fisheries management influences phytoplankton biomass of Amazonian floodplain lakes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 731-743, April 2021., 2021
Tropical freshwaters fisheries typically assume that fish biomass is controlled by bottom‐up mechanisms, so that overexploitation of large predators would not affect overall ecosystem productivity. Our results, however, show that top‐down forces are important drivers of primary productivity in tropical lakes, above and beyond the effects of bottom‐up ...

Anatomia e histologia gastrintestinal da garoupa-verdadeira Epinephelus marginatus (Lowe, 1834) (Teleostei, Serranidae) - doi: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v32i4.4462

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2010
A garoupa-verdadeira (Epinephelus marginatus) é uma espécie de serranídeo com grande importância ecológica e boas perspectivas para o cultivo. A investigação da morfologia do trato digestório, associada à atividade alimentar, é fundamental para a ...
