Nesting innovations in neotropical parrots associated to anthropogenic environmental changes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
Most parrots are obligate cavity nesters, so the logging of mature trees and the transformation of natural cliffs represent important threats to their conservation. Here, we report novel observations of Neotropical parrots nesting in previously unrecorded substrates.

Reassessment of generic boundaries in Neotropical Chrysophylloideae (Sapotaceae): Eleven reinstated genera and narrowed circumscriptions of Chrysophyllum and Pouteria

TAXON, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 307-359, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Classifications of the pantropical plant family Sapotaceae based solely on morphology have historically recognized between 125 and 53 genera. Phylogenetic analyses using molecular data have repeatedly demonstrated that broad concepts of two large genera belonging to subfamily Chrysophylloideae, Chrysophyllum and Pouteria, are untenable and ...

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 ...

Laboulbeniales hyperparasites (Fungi, Ascomycota) of bat flies: Independent origins and host associations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 8, Issue 16, Page 8396-8418, August 2018., 2018
In this article, we focus on a fascinating hyperparasitic study system. More specifically, we study the ectoparasitic fungi that are associated with the flies that are bloodsucking ectoparasites of bats (Mammalia and Chiroptera). We make an important contribution to the field by (a) applying new methodologies for DNA extraction (including a whole ...
