Cytogenetics of two hylid frogs from Brazilian Cerrado
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2018 Cytogenetic data can be useful for taxonomic and phylogenetic studies, as well as to provide information about chromosome evolution. Therefore, it may help design conservation priorities for some threatened species, such as anurans.

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess vertebrate biodiversity in headwater streams of the Rio Santo Antônio basin, southeastern Brazil, a tributary of the Rio Doce. A total of 119 vertebrate OTUs were identified, with oxidation–reduction potential emerging as the strongest environmental predictor of species richness.

Hide and Seek: Species Detectability in a Biodiversity Hotspot Increased by Environmental DNA
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.We demonstrated through Bayesian modeling that eDNA metabarcoding offers equivalent or higher detectability than traditional field inventory techniques for anuran species in a biodiversity hotspot. The number of recorded species was also higher in seven out of ten sampled streams.

Journal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 3, Page 268-276, July 2025.Different defensive strategies are used by tadpoles to avoid or escape from predators, and it is possible that differences in the microhabitat of prey and predators influence the defensive strategies used by tadpoles. Therefore, we experimentally tested whether the presence of a nektonic fish predator (Oreochromis niloticus) reduces the time of ...

Collared Peccary Wallows are Hubs of Animal Activity and Diversity in a Central American Wet Forest
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.Collared peccary wallows are used by a diverse assemblage of vertebrates in a Central American tropical wet forest. Wallows had significantly higher vertebrate activity and diversity compared to surrounding forest. Wallow visitors included 13 amphibian, 2 reptile, 11 bird, and 16 mammal species, engaged in behaviors including reproduction, drinking ...
