Seasonal Reproductive Dynamics of a Lek-Breeding Neotropical Treefrog is not Organized by Male Size (Anura, Hylidae )
(Soc Brasileira Herpetologia, 2020-12-01)
Social structure in anurans is directly related to reproductive traits such as chorus organization, male territoriality, pair formation, breeding site choice, and temporal breeding pattern. The Neotropical treefrog ...
Does urbanization affect the seasonal dynamics of bird communities in urban parks?
(Springer, 2016-06)
The environmental factors affecting the spatial dynamics of bird communities in urban parks are well understood, but much less attention has been paid to the seasonal dynamics of bird communities. Since migrant and resident ...
Reproductive characteristics of stallions during the breeding and non-breeding season in a tropical region
(Springer, 2012-10-01)
The objective of this study was to investigate reproductive characteristics of stallions at a tropical zone in the breeding and non-breeding seasons. The following parameters were assessed: testicular volume; semen quality; ...

Influence of breeding season on fecal glucocorticoid levels in captive Greater Rhea (Rhea americana)
(Wiley, 2015-02)
Sex hormones and stress-related changes can be seasonally influenced. We investigate whether fecal glucocorticoid metabolite (FGM) levels can differ between male and female captive Greater Rheas during the breeding and ...
Avian responses to forest fragmentation during the breeding and non-breeding seasons
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-10)
Forest fragmentation represents a threat to several bird species worldwide. Several factors can change across seasons (e.g. bird perception of the landscape, weather conditions, biotic interactions), which can modify the ...
Anuran fauna of the Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho - Nficleo Sete Barras, southeastern Brazil: species composition, use of breeding sites, and seasonal patterns of breeding activity
(Revista Biota Neotropica, 2021-01-01)
The goal of this work was to study the species composition, the use of breeding sites, and the seasonal patterns of breeding activity of the anuran fauna from Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho - Nucleo Sete Barras, state of ...
External factors determining seasonal breeding in a subtropical population of the shore crab Pachygrapsus transversus (Gibbes, 1850) (Brachyura, Grapsidae)
(1998-11-01)
Monthly samples of the shore crab Pachygrapsus transversus from two distinct annual periods showed that ovigerous females are present throughout the Year in the population. However, the relative ovigerous abundance of ...
Serum biochemical parameters in the ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) on breeding season
(2007-11-19)
The influence of sex on serum biochemical parameters was investigated in adult (52 week-old) ring-necked pheasants on reproductive activity. Statistical comparisons were made for differences in values between male and ...
