Host Abundance Predicts Interactive Roles in Neotropical Bat–Bat Fly Interactions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We analyzed the influence of bat functional traits on their importance as hosts in bat–bat fly networks. Our results indicate that bat abundance is the main driver for host importance in Neotropical bat–bat fly interactions. ABSTRACT Host functional traits are known to shape host‐parasite interactions across multiple taxa.

Plant dispersal across the tropical Atlantic by wind and sea currents [PDF]

, 2004
This review brings together evidence on the monophyly and ages of angiosperm lineages ranging across the tropical Atlantic with data on the direction, strength, and speed of sea currents and wind jets across that ocean. Mainly for pragmatic reasons (data

Landscape features predict broad‐scale seed rain patterns across fragments of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.
Along with precipitation, forest cover emerges as a fundamental driver of alpha and beta diversity in the seed rain. This highlights the role of habitat amount at the landscape level over patch‐level features, like patch size, for seed dispersal. However, increased seed density can be related to higher dispersal rates in forest borders.

Anatomical Description of the Main Gyri and Sulci of the Telencephalon of Alouatta belzebul

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Alouatta belzebul is a species of howler monkey, of the Atelidae family and genus Alouatta. It is endemic in Brazil and has a separate geographic distribution, with two populations occurring: in the Amazon and in the Atlantic Forest on the coast of Northeast Brazil. The species is classified as ‘vulnerable’, and this is mainly justified by

An Ecological Modelling Approach to Support Peru Wildlife Conservation Planning Based on Geospatial Datasets and Remote Sensing Information

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Peru, a megadiverse country, has developed conservation plans for some threatened wildlife species. This study produced spatially explicit data integrating Species Distribution Models (SDMs) into a geospatial analysis of connectivity within the protected areas (PAs) network.

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Infanticide and infant defence by males--modelling the conditions in primate multi-male groups [PDF]

, 2004
Infanticide by primate males was considered rare if groups contain more than one adult male because, owing to lower paternity certainty, a male should be less likely to benefit from infanticide.

Eco-Epidemiological Profile and Molecular Characterization of Simian Foamy Virus in a Recently-Captured Invasive Population of Leontopithecus chrysomelas (Golden-Headed Lion Tamarin) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Viruses, 2019
Simian foamy viruses (SFV) infect a wide range of Old World and Neotropical primates (NP). Unlike Old World primates, little is known about the diversity and prevalence of SFV in NP, mainly from a free-living population.
