Changes of arthropod diversity across an altitudinal ecoregional zonation in Northwestern Argentina
(PeerJ Inc., 2017-11)
This study examined arthropod community patterns over an altitudinal ecoregional zonation that extended through three ecoregions (Yungas, Monte de Sierras y Bolsones, and Puna) and two ecotones (Yungas-Monte and Prepuna) ...
New records of fleas and ticks in armadillos (Xenarthra: Chlamyphoridae) from the Espinal and Monte ecoregions of La Pampa province, Argentina
(Magnolia Press, 2021-03)
La Pampa province is divided into two clearly distinguishable fractions: a small northeastern humid sector corresponding to the Pampas ecoregion and a drier western sector, represented by the Monte de Llanuras y Mesetas ...
Correspondence between stream benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages and ecoregions in northwestern Argentina
(University of Chicago Press, 2019-02-08)
The use of ecoregions to classify stream and river environments has been extensively tested in North America and Europe, but few such studies have been conducted in South America. In this study we tested whether taxonomic ...
Realistic soil C sink estimate in dry forests of western Argentina based on humic substance content
(Elsevier, 2013-02)
Due to high temporal variation of soil organic matter in arid regions, estimates of annual sequestered C might be overestimate. We assessed the soil stable organic matter (humic substances) in the transitional area between ...
The eco-epidemiology of Triatoma infestans in the temperate monte desert ecoregion of mid-western Argentina
(Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, 2017-10)
BACKGROUND The eco-epidemiological status of Chagas disease in the Monte Desert ecoregion of western Argentina is largely unknown. We investigated the environmental and socio-demographic determinants of house infestation ...
The lack of males due to illegal trapping is causing polygyny in the globally endangered Yellow Cardinal Gubernatrix cristata
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia, 2019-03)
We present breeding data from the southernmost populations of the globally “Endangered” Yellow Cardinal Gubernatrix cristata in Argentina, confirming the presence of current breeding populations in the region. We monitored ...
Abundance of Chelonoidis chilensis (Gray, 1870) within protected and unprotected areas from the Dry Chaco and Monte Eco-regions (Argentina)Abundanzen von Chelonoidis chilensis (Gray, 1870) in geschützten und nicht geschützten Gebieten zweier Ökoregionen, des Trockenen Chaco und der monte vegetation (argentinien) (reptilia: Testudines: Testudinidae)
(Austrian Herpetological Society, 2014-06)
During the seasonal activity period, abundance data on five populations of Chelonoidis chilensis (Gray, 1870) from the north and south of the species range in argentina were collected along standardized transects. Studied ...
Spatial diversity of dung beetle assemblages (Coleoptera: Scarabaeinae) in five ecoregions from Sucre, Colombian Caribbean coast.
(Universidad del ValleColombia, 2019-12-31)
Biodiversity changes in space and time generate complex gradients. These gradients affect community structures, generating beta diversity replacement patterns. The two main patterns of spatial replacement are turnover and ...
