A worldwide and annotated database of evaporative water loss rates in squamate reptiles
(2021-10-01)
Motivation: The understanding of physiological adaptations, of evolutionary radiations and of ecological responses to global change urges for global, comprehensive databases of the functional traits of extant organisms. ...
Habitat loss of a rainforest specialist pollinator fly as an indicator of conservation status of the South American temperate rainforests
(Springer, 2018)
We estimate habitat loss and fragmentation in a hoverfly, Aneriophora aureorufa, used as a representative forest specialist species. This species is a pollinator specialist of two native trees, forming a triad endemic to ...
Specific differences in habitat requirement drive responses to habitat loss and disturbance in Atlantic Forest small mammals
(Instituto de BiologiaPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Biomonitoramento (Pós-Ecologia)UFBABrasil, 2018-06-15)
As deforestation proceeds, habitat is lost in the landscape and the human-created matrix augments. Species that differ in their habitat requirements and tolerance to disturbance should not be equally affected
by habitat ...

(APOLLO BOOKSSTENSTRUP, 2012)
Male secondary sexual characters in Lepidoptera may be present or absent in species that otherwise appear to be closely related, an observation that has led to differences of opinion over the taxonomic usefulness of these ...
Social wasp-flower visiting guild interactions in less structurally complex habitats are more susceptible to local extinction

Egg loss in females of two lithodid species following different return-to-the-water protocols
(Elsevier, 2015-01)
Coastal waters of the southern tip of South America have sustained a mixed king crab fishery since the 1930s, with two target species: the southern king crab Lithodes santolla and the stone crab Paralomis granulosa. The ...
Post-dispersal fate of seeds in the Monte desert of Argentina: patterns of germination in successive wet and dry years

1 Patterns of seed germination of grass and forb species were studied in open Prosopis woodland of the central Monte desert (Argentina) during several years, to test the hypotheses that (i) seed germination is positively ...
Spatial heterogeneity and habitat configuration overcome habitat composition influences on alpha and beta mammal diversity
(2020-01-01)
The effects of habitat fragmentation on different taxa and ecosystems are subject to intense debate, and disentangling them is of utmost importance to support conservation and management strategies. We evaluated the ...
