Assemblages of small bird species (o90 gbody mass) from the Monte desert in Argentinawere studied to analyze spatial and temporal variation in abundance and species richness.Mean species richness was higher during breeding ...

Species co-occurrence in local assemblages is shaped by distinct processes at different spatial and temporal scales. Here we focus on historical explanations and examine the phylogenetic structure of local assemblages of ...

Bird species assemblages in isolated Neotropical highland mountains have been moulded by the drastic climatic changes that occurred in late Pleistocene. Palynological evidence indicates that after the Pleistocene the ...

Between 1970 and 1980, many ornithological prospections were made in Central Argentina. With this work we intend to fill some of the existing gaps regarding such knowledge. We conducted bird surveys in the Central-western ...

We compared the vegetation structure between old (>70 year) stands of planted diversified native forests and stands of Eucalyptus tereticornis embedded in a mosaic of Eucalyptus stands. We then tested for differences in ...

Estuaries are important environments for birds as resting and foraging sites. Therefore, information about the abundance, distribution, and biology of bird populations are necessary for preservation of such ecosystems. In ...

The Atlantic Forest (AF) is one of the most threatened and megadiverse world hotspots. It is arguably the most devastated and highly threatened ecosystem on the planet. The vast scope of habitat loss and extreme fragmentation ...

The occurrence of fauna in commercial plantations is often associated with structural complexity. Through a meta-analysis, we tested whether the structural complexity of plantations could enhance bird species assemblages ...
