Identification key for fishes from coastal streams of the Atlantic forest of southeastern Brazil
(Revista Biota Neotropica, 2017-01-01)
In recent decades, current knowledge about fish from Neotropical streams has greatly increased, but is still deficient. Here we present an identification key for fishes from coastal freshwater streams from a large conservation ...
Influence of environmental features at multiple scales and spatial structure on stream fish communities in a tropical agricultural region
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2017-01-01)
Land cover change for agricultural expansion exerts strong pressures on tropical streams. We examined the relative contributions of catchment land cover, local environmental features, and spatial patterns on stream fish ...
Responses of aquatic food webs to the addition of structural complexity and basal resource diversity in degraded Neotropical streams
(2017-12-01)
The loss of riparian forests can disrupt the structure and function of lotic ecosystems through increased habitat homogenization and decreased resource diversity. We conducted a field experiment and manipulated structural ...
Macroinvertebrates in neotropical streams: richness patterns along a catchment and assemblage structure between 2 seasons
(North Amer Benthological SocLawrenceEUA, 2001)
Short-term response of fish assemblages to instream habitat restoration in heavily impacted streams
(2020-01-01)
Habitat homogenization has been a major impact in stream ecosystems, and it is considered one of the main drivers of biotic homogenization as well, leading to the loss of water quality and fish diversity. In this study, ...
Rapid Bioassessment Protocols using benthic macroinvertebrates in Brazil: evaluation of taxonomic sufficiency
(University of Chicago Press, 2017)
Spatial-temporal distribution of preimaginal blackflies in Neotropical streams
(Hydrobiologia, 2014)
How deforestation drives stream habitat changes and the functional structure of fish assemblages in different tropical regions
(2019-01-01)
Deforestation can modify stream habitat and the functional structure of fish assemblages. The aims of this study were (a) to identify whether deforestation has a similar effect on local habitats from two biogeographically ...
Evaluating the use of predatory insects as bioindicators of metals contamination due to sugarcane cultivation in neotropical streams
(SPRINGER, 2011)
Streams located in areas of sugarcane cultivation receive high concentrations of metal ions from soils of the adjacent areas causing accumulation of metals in the aquatic sediment. This impact results in environmental ...
