Levantamiento espacial y ecologico de Mazama americana y Mazana nana en los fragmentos forestales vecinos al Parque Nacional do Iguaçu [PDF]

, 2014
Los factores que determinan la ocurrencia de 2 especies de ciervos (Mazama nana y Mazama americana) en paisajes fragmentados, son poco estudiados. De acuerdo con la teoría de metapoblaciones el Parque Nacional Iguaçu (PNI) funcionaría como área fuente en los fragmentos del paisaje adyacente.

Prevalence and risk factors for bluetongue in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci, 2018
Epidemiology of the bluetongue found in cattle in Brazil. The variable ‘new cattle entering herd’ was considered a risk factor for the occurrence of infection (OR = 2.183, 95% CI = 1.6–2.9). This is the first serological evidence for the occurrence of serotypes BTV‐2, BTV‐9, BTV‐21 and BTV‐26 in Brazil.

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals

Global 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 ...

Limited temporal response of Cerrado mammals to anthropogenic pressure in areas under distinct levels of protection

Journal of Zoology, Volume 317, Issue 1, Page 43-55, May 2022., 2022
We used camera trap data to investigate whether Cerrado mammals would shift part of their activity towards the night in response to anthropogenic pressure. Our results revealed that 12 out of 14 species investigated did not show a temporal response to pressure.

Failure to infect laboratory rodent hosts with human isolates of Rodentolepis (= Hymenolepis) nana [PDF]

, 2002
Confusion exists over the species status and host-specificity of the tapeworm Rodentolepis (= Hymenolepis) nana. It has been described as one species, R. nana, found in both humans and rodents. Others have identified a subspecies; R. nana var.

LED flashlight technology facilitates wild meat extraction across the tropics

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 489-495, November 2020., 2020
Hunting for wild meat in the tropics provides subsistence and income for millions of people. Methods have remained relatively unchanged since the introduction of shotguns and battery‐powered incandescent flashlights, but the short battery life of such flashlights has limited nocturnal hunting.

A molecular phylogeny of nuclear and mitochondrial sequences in Hymenolepis nana (Cestoda) supports the existence of a cryptic species [PDF]

, 2002
Since isolates of Hymenolepis nana infecting humans and rodents are morphologically indistinguishable, the only way they can be reliably identified is by comparing the parasite in each host using molecular tools. In the current study, isolates of H. nana
