Using arboreal camera traps, we show that sleeping sites represent a shared but contested resource in a Brazilian Atlantic Forest primate community, and that spatiotemporal resource partitioning is driven by resource holding potential (RHP). Although syntopic primates relied on the same Copaifera trapezifolia trees as key sleeping sites, access ...

Contribution au contrôle continu des pâturages tropicaux. I
Afin de suivre l'évolution des pâturages résultant, tant des aléas climatiques que des diverses formes d'exploitation, un contrôle continu doit être envisagé aux niveaux nationaux et transnationaux.

ABSTRACT While primary forests are declining, regenerating habitats are becoming increasingly common. In fragmented environments, streams may function as corridors between forest remnants for riparian and aquatic species. However, the responses of stream‐associated species to forest regeneration remain understudied.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The physiology of tropical mosses, liverworts and lichens may be challenged by the daily weather patterns in lowland rainforests. Since these poikilohydric organisms can only photosynthesize and respire when hydrated, unfavourable timing of light and water availability (

Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers
Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...
