Stratified sampling enhances the understanding of bat–fruit networks in the southern Atlantic Forest
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,

Floral resource diversity drives spatiotemporal variation in plant–pollinator network structure
Mechanisms underlying community assembly, including those related to species interactions, vary across space and time. Plant–pollinator networks exemplify these dynamics, where link rewiring and turnover mediate adaptations to environmental changes. Bees rely on diverse floral resources (e.g.

Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.

The response of dispersers to landscape changes depends on both external environmental conditions and individual internal conditions, as well as movement and orientation abilities. Plasticity in habitat selection may also affect how individuals respond to landscape changes.

Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores
Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...
