Do extrafloral nectaries present a defensive role against herbivores in two species of the family Bignoniaceae in a Neotropical savannas?
(SPRINGERDORDRECHT, 2012)
Despite the general belief that the interaction between extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) and ants is mutualistic, the defensive function of EFNs has been poorly documented in South American savannas. In this article, we evaluate ...
The Life Cycle of Symbiotic Crustaceans: A Primer
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
In the subphylum Crustacea, species from most major clades have independently evolved symbiotic relationships with a wide variety of invertebrate and vertebrate hosts. Herein, we review the life cycle disparity in symbiotic ...
Gestation, maternal behaviour, growth and development in the subterranean caviomorph rodent Ctenomys mendocinus (Rodentia, Hystricognathi, Ctenomyidae)
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2010-02)
The first information on the gestation period, maternal behaviour, neonatal development and growth of the subterranean caviomorph rodent Ctenomys mendocinus Philippi, 1869, is reported herein. My hypothesis was that, despite ...

A geometric morphometric approach to the analysis of skull shape in Triassic dicynodonts (Therapsida, Anomodontia) from South America
(Veterinary and Human Toxicology, 2019-12)
Dicynodont therapsids were a major component of the Permo-Triassic terrestrial ecosystems across Pangea and have been regarded as specialized herbivores. In South America, the group was represented by several taxa of the ...
Germination ecology in a Caribbean seasonally dry forest : on the fabaceae seed germination niche hypothesis
(UniandesMaestría en Ciencias BiológicasFacultad de CienciasDepartamento de Biología, 2018)
"La germinación es la etapa más crítica del ciclo de vida de las plantas y tiene influencia directa en la estructura y la composición de una comunidad vegetal. En bosques en peligro, como el bosque seco tropical estacional ...
An ecomorphological analysis of forelimb musculo-tendinous system in sigmodontine rodents (Rodentia, Cricetidae, Sigmodontinae)
(Oxford University Press, 2014-08)
La idea central de la teoría ecomorfológica plantea que existe una correlación entre los requisitos ecológicos y el diseño (morfología) de los organismos. Los roedores sigmodontinos presentan una amplia variedad de tipos ...
