Trophic interactions between parasitoids and necrophagous flies in Central Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2016-07)
The main exploiters of decay organic matter are larvae of necrophagous flies in the families Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae and Muscidae. The knowledge of insect species associated with each stage of decay can be used to ...
Mutualism influences species distribution predictions for a bromeliad-breeding anuran under climate change
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-01)
Ecological niche models, or species distribution models, have been widely used to identify potentially suitable areas for species in future climate change scenarios. However, there are inherent errors to these models due ...
Insect galls from Córdoba, Argentina: a case where stem galls predomínate
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2018)
A new early warning indicator of tree species crashes from effective intraspecific interactions in tropical forests
(Elsevier, 2021)
The vulnerability of species richness to several factors like, climate change, habitat fragmentation, resource exploitation, etc., poses a challenge to conservation biologists and agencies working to sustain the ecosystem ...
Shrub facilitation increases plant diversity along an arid scrubland-temperate rain forest boundary in South America
(2012)
Theoretical models predict nurse plant facilitation enhances species richness by ameliorating stressful environmental conditions and expanding
distributional ranges of stress-intolerant species into harsh environments. ...
Plant phenological research enhances ecological restoration
(2017-03-01)
While phenology data (the timing of recurring biological events) has been used to explain and predict patterns related to global change, and to address applied environmental issues, it has not been clearly identified as ...
Evaluating factors that predict the structure of a commensalistic epiphyte–phorophyte network
(2013)
A central issue in ecology is the understanding of the establishment of biotic interactions. We studied the factors that affect the assembly of the commensalistic interactions between vascular epiphytes and their host ...
Introduced lagomorph produce stronger potential apparent competition in invaded communities than any other species in a similar but native food web
(Springer, 2019-12)
Apparent competition is an indirect interaction that can strongly influence ecosystem functioning, altering species populations within the same trophic level. As a new resource, an introduced species can generate strong ...
Infomap Bioregions: Interactive Mapping of Biogeographical Regions from Species Distributions
(Oxford Univ Press, 2017)
Biogeographical regions (bioregions) reveal how different sets of species are spatially grouped and therefore are important units for conservation, historical biogeography, ecology, and evolution. Several methods have been ...
Ecological niche modeling and geographical distribution of pollinator and plants: A case study of Peponapis fervens (Smith, 1879) (Eucerini: Apidae) and Cucurbita species (Cucurbitaceae)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
The bees of the Peponapes genus (Eucerini, Apidae) have a Neotropical distribution with the center of species diversity located in Mexico and are specialized in Cucurbita plants. which have many species of economic importance. ...
