Contrasting evidence of phylogenetic trophic niche conservatism in mammals worldwide [PDF]

, 2017
Aim Phylogenetic niche conservatism (PNC), a pattern of closely related species retaining ancestral niche-related traits over evolutionary time, is well documented for abiotic (Grinellian) dimensions of the ecological niche.

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

When Calves Get Vulnerable, Ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) Get Bold: A Camera Trap Record of Opportunistic Foraging in a Fragmented Landscape

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We report the first confirmed record of an ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) dragging a newborn calf in a degraded forest fragment of southeastern Brazil. Using camera trap records, we reveal an opportunistic foraging event involving a vulnerable domestic prey within a highly fragmented landscape.

Fallen Logs Act as Natural Bridges Over Rivers in a Tropical Wet Forest

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
We studied how vertebrate species used logs as bridges over rivers in a tropical rainforest. Most mammals present in the area used logs, but the frequency and probability of crossing varied widely among species, between seasons, and in relation to the dimensions of the log and the river below.

Mammals with large home ranges, low reproductive rates and small body sizes are most vulnerable to roads: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 12, Page 3227-3239, December 2025.
Road mitigation for mammals should ideally be informed by site‐level knowledge and generally involve prioritizing species with the combination of larger home ranges, lower reproductive rates and smaller body sizes. To protect these vulnerable mammals from roads, we should maintain low road densities and instal small‐mesh mitigation fencing along roads.
