Diel and seasonal variation of Striped Cuckoo (Tapera naevia) vocalizations revealed using automated signal recognition

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 1, Page 179-189, January 2023., 2023
Studying seasonal changes in the vocal activity of birds may shed light on the function of avian vocalizations and the phenology of life history events. Our current knowledge regarding the seasonality of the vocal behaviour of tropical birds in general, and avian brood parasites in particular, is very limited.

Patterns, biases and prospects in the distribution and diversity of Neotropical snakes

Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2017
Motivation We generated a novel database of Neotropical snakes (one of the world's richest herpetofauna) combining the most comprehensive, manually compiled distribution dataset with publicly available data.

An ecological vulnerability index to assess impacts of offshore wind facilities on migratory songbirds

Journal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
Our methodology is readily applicable to other regions where offshore wind (OSW) development is planned and songbird migration is common, allowing research and monitoring activities to be targeted to species most likely to be negatively affected by OSW facility encounters. Abstract As offshore wind (OSW) energy expands globally, migratory songbirds are

Thysanoptera biodiversity in the Neotropics.

Revista de biologia tropical, 2002
It is suggested that descriptive taxonomy of thrips must be integrated into biological studies if we are to understand patterns of evolutionary and ecological diversity. Collecting and describing new taxa is easy, but understanding their position in ecosystems and how they have contributed to the origin and maintenance of biological diversity is more ...

Interspecific and intraspecific variations in root phosphatase activity among tropical tree species with different soil phosphorus associations

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Our results suggest that the specialization of tropical tree species to low‐P soil involves investment in the acquisition of complex soil organic phosphates such as phosphodiesters and phytic acid. This is possibly related to root trait divergence and indicates that variation in P acquisition strategies among tropical tree species could contribute to ...

Fish assemblage structure of the Ipanema River, a small lotic environment partially protected by a Conservation Unit in southeastern Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Biology
A study on the fish assemblage of the Ipanema River, a small affluent of the Tietê River basin in southeastern Brazil, was performed aiming to look for structural patterns of species diversity in small lowland lotic environments.

Population genetics of Zamia decumbens (Zamiaceae, Cycadales), an endangered cycad from the Maya Mountains of Belize

Plant Species Biology, EarlyView.
We utilized 10 microsatellite loci to examine the genetic diversity, genetic structure, and demographic history of Zamia decumbens Calonje, Meerman, M.P. Griff. & Hoese, an endangered cycad species occurring in small disjunct populations on karst topography within the Maya Mountains of Belize.
