Supervivencia de nidos del Cardenal Común (Paroaria coronata) en un hábitat modificado en ArgentinaNest survival of the Red-crested Cardinal (Paroaria coronata) in a modified habitat in Argentina
(Neotropical Ornithological Society, 2012-12)
La modificación de los sitios de nidificación causada por la actividad humana puede tener un efecto negativo sobre el éxito reproductivo de las aves. En las últimas décadas, una población de Cardenal Común (Paroaria coronata) ...
Effects of nest-site characteristics and parental activity on cowbird parasitism and nest predation in Brown-and-yellow MarshbirdsEfectos de las características del sitio de nidificación y actividad parental en el parasitismo de cría por tordos y predación de nidos en Pseudoleistes virescens
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009-03)
Nest-site selection and nest defense are strategies for reducing the costs of brood parasitism and nest predation, two selective forces that can influence avian nesting success and fitness. During 2001-2002, we analyzed ...
Patterns of predation risk and survival of bird nests in a Chilean agricultural landscape
(2001)
We used experimental nests baited with California Quail (Callipepla californica) eggs or clay eggs to examine relative risks of nest predation in an agricultural landscape and in two large forest preserves in a south-temperate ...
Egg clutch survival under prolonged paternal care in a glass frog, Hyalinobatrachium talamancae
(American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, 2020-09)
Previous studies have reported egg attendance as the most common protective behavior among the Neotropical frog family Centrolenidae. However, research on the effect of parental care and other factors thought to affect ...
PATTERNS OF COLONIZATION AND INCIPIENT NEST SURVIVAL IN ACROMYRMEX-NIGER AND ACROMYRMEX-BALZANI (HYMENOPTERA, FORMICIDAE)
(Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 1992-01-01)
Patterns of colonization by queens and incipient nest survival of the leaf-cutting ants Acromyrmex niger and Acromyrmex balzani were studied by means of belt transects and individually marked incipient nests. No relation ...

Informations about the population dynamic of Trachemys dorbigni were collected from February 2006 to January 2007, in the Santa Barbara stream, Pelotas, Brazil. It was collected 377 individuals in the traps, 160 females, ...
Lack of effect of microhabitat charaacteristics on nest predation and brood parasitims in creamy-bellied thruss (Turdus Amaurochalinus)
(Neotropical Ornithological Society, 2013-11)
Nest predation and brood parasitism are key factors affecting nest survival in passerine birds. As a result, birds may select nest sites that minimize the probability of nests being found by predators or by brood parasites. ...
Strong selection on mandible and nest features in a carpenter bee that nests in two sympatric host plants
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2014)
Host plants are used by herbivorous insects as feeding or nesting resources. In wood-boring insects, host plants features may impose selective forces leading to phenotypic differentiation on traits related to nest construction. ...
Effects of fragmentation and landscape matrix on the nesting success of grassland birds in the Pampas grasslands of Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-10)
The loss of grasslands in southeastern South America has negatively affected grassland birds, leading to marked declines in their populations. However, the extent to which habitat transformation impacts on their reproductive ...
