Ecological patterns of blood-feeding by kissing-bugs (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae)
(Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, 2011-04)
Host use by vectors is important in understanding the transmission of zoonotic diseases, which can affect humans, wildlife and domestic animals. Here, a synthesis of host exploitation patterns by kissing-bugs, vectors of ...
Seasonal patterns of herbivory, leaf traits and productivity consumption in dry and wet Patagonian forests
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-06)
1. Endemic herbivory can influence forest ecosystem function, but how annual productivity consumption relates to seasonal resource utilisation by folivore guilds remains poorly understood. 2. Monthly changes in leaf damage ...
Ontogenetic Changes in the Diet and Head Morphology of an Omnivorous Tropidurid Lizard (Microlophus thoracicus)
(Elsevier, 2018)
Ontogenetic shifts from an insectivorous diet towards an herbivorous one are well known in lizards. Energetic, behavioral and morphological factors have been linked to this pattern, but the latter have received less ...
Uma revisão sobre os estudos de dietas de aves brasileiras
