Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

Fishing for Anglers in a Sea of Data: Using Mobility Data to Identify and Track Marine Recreational Fishing

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Analysing recreational anglers in marine waters presents several challenges. First, while there are well‐established approaches to estimate fishing effort, they are only as good as the coverage of the underlying data, which invariably has blind spots that can bias estimates. Additionally, tracking anglers' movements over time and their fishing

Age and growth of the endemic groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a heavily exploited batoid in the Brazilian Meridional Margin (21–34° S)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Life‐history data are often lacking for exploited elasmobranchs, jeopardizing proper management and conservation measures for this vulnerable group. Herein, we provided age and growth estimates for the groovebelly stingray (Dasyatis hypostigma), a medium‐sized, heavily exploited batoid endemic to the southwestern Atlantic Ocean.
