Bioclimatic constraints to Andean cat distribution: A modelling application for rare species
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-03)
Aim To identify the bioclimatic niche of the endangered Andean cat (Leopardus jacobita), one of the rarest and least known felids in the world, by developing a species distribution model. Location South America, High Andes ...
Niche dynamics and potential geographic distribution of Didymosphenia geminata (Lyngbye) M. Schmidt, an invasive freshwater diatom in Southern Chile
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2014)
© 2014 REABIC. Aquatic invasive species are a major threat to native freshwater ecosystems and cause enormous ecological and economic damage worldwide. Didymosphenia geminata (Lyngbye) M. Schmidt is an emerging invasive ...
Disentangling morphologically similar species of the Andean forest: Integrating results from multivariate morphometric analyses, niche modelling and climatic space comparison in Kaunia (Eupatorieae: Asteraceae)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-01)
Six subtropical montane forest Kaunia spp. are remarkable for their superficial morphological similarity. We aim to explore different sources of data to clarify species delimitation in this complex of Kaunia. Morphological ...
Predicting the potential distribution of the alien invasive American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) in Brazil
(Springer, 2008-06-01)
The non-native invasive anuran Lithobates catesbeianus is presently distributed in Brazil, especially in the Atlantic Rainforest biodiversity hotspot. Here, we use a maximum entropy ecological niche modeling algorithm (i) ...

Can seedlings’ physiological information improve vegetation distribution predictions at local scales?
(2020-04-17)
Physiological information has been suc-
cessfully included in marine Species Distribution
Models (SDM) before, but few have considered a
previous development stage that could have affected
the present-day distribution ...
Understanding the ecological niche to elucidate spatial strategies of the the southernmost Tupinambis
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2013-06)
Understanding factors that shape ranges of species is central in evolutionary biology. Species distribution models have become important tools to test biogeographical, ecological and evolutionary hypotheses. Moreover, from ...
Assessing the distribution of a Vulnerable felid species: threats from human land use and climate change to the kodkod Leopardus guigna
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-10)
Climate change and habitat fragmentation are considered key pressures on biodiversity, and mammalian carnivores with a limited geographical distribution are particularly vulnerable. The kodkod Leopardus guigna, a small ...
