Proximity to Natural Habitat Is Not Consistently Associated With Pollination Services in Tropical Smallholder Farms: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Ecol Lett
We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 35 studies to examine the relationship between distance to natural habitat and pollinator abundance, species richness and crop fruit set in tropical smallholder farms. We found no consistent effects on abundance or fruit set, and only a slight, highly variable negative effect on pollinator richness,

A amostragem estratificada aprimora a compreensão das redes entre morcegos e frutos na Mata Atlântica meridional

Oikos, EarlyView.
Few studies have sought to understand the vertical patterns of bat–fruit systems, and therefore, it is not possible to evaluate whether interpretations based on data collected from a single stratum adequately represent the interaction patterns of this system. In this context, we evaluated the dissimilarity in the assemblage of frugivorous bats, plants,
