Geomorphology and habitat diversity in the Pantanal

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2011
The present study deals with the inter-relations in the relief which forms the Bacia do Alto Rio Paraguay (BAP) in mid-west Brazil. The overall aim is to discuss the relationship between relief forms and the biodiversity of the Pantanal. The BAP is a natural environmental system with contrasts in two of the compartments on which it is formed: the ...

Geographical distribution of the Pinnated Bittern (Botaurus pinnatus): Update and seasonal movement pattern

Ibis, EarlyView.
The Pinnated Bittern Botaurus pinnatus (Ardeidae) is a widely distributed Neotropical wading bird whose distribution and seasonal status remain poorly resolved. Discrepancies among published literature, citizen science records and the range currently assumed by BirdLife International indicate that both its geographical distribution and migratory ...

High prevalence of a host‐associated Anaplasma lineage in wild coatis (Nasua nasua) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Anaplasma sp. DNA was detected in 47.9% of free‐ranging coatis (Nasua nasua) sampled in Iguaçu National Park, southern Brazil. Molecular analyses revealed a genetically distinct Anaplasma lineage infecting coatis, differing from Anaplasma strains detected in associated tick populations.

Conservation in the Pantanal of Brazil [PDF]

Oryx, 1990
The Pantanal of South America is the world's largest wetland and has an abundant and diverse fauna. Although man's influence has caused many changes there are still some little disturbed areas, which offer opportunities for conservation. The authors discuss some of the threats to the region and recommend how these could be mitigated.

Systematics of Marmosa Subgenus Micoureus With Emphasis in ‘rapposa’ Group (Didelphidae, Marmosini): Geographic Variation and Revalidation of M. budini

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

Parasitoidism by Brachymeria pandora (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae) in Pupae of Danaus erippus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in an Urban Savanna Area

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Chalcididae comprises parasitoid wasps that attack various invertebrate groups. Within the family, some Brachymeria species specialises in infecting pupae of Lepidoptera. Here, we quantitatively describe the relationship between Brachymeria pandora and the Southern Monarch butterfly, Danaus erippus, in urban areas of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso ...

A Harmonized Landsat–Sentinel‐2 Burned‐Area Product for the Pantanal (2014–2024), Based on Multitemporal Composites

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
This work presents AQM‐HLS, a harmonized burned‐area dataset for the Pantanal covering 2014–2024. Landsat‐8/9 and Sentinel‐2 imagery were integrated into multitemporal NBR composites and classified using Random Forest. The dataset captures fire‐scar dynamics, delivering accurate 30‐m burned‐area maps suitable for long‐term monitoring and environmental ...

Post‐disaster deterritorialisation and ‘roof‐centred’ recovery: enduring policy impacts on marginalised groups in Brazil

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study critically examines post‐disaster recovery policies in Brazil and their short‐ and long‐term effects on marginalised populations, particularly those living in informal or precarious housing. Drawing on a mixed‐methods investigation conducted in collaboration with the Movimento dos Atingidos por Barragens, the research analyses multi‐

The Role of Gene Flow in the Diversification of the Monkey Treefrog Complex Across the South American Dry Diagonal

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 568-588, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,
