The present study was conducted in the Serra do Japi in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. From March 2004 to January 2006 we studied the ecology and reproductive biology of two sympatric species of Aplastodiscus in three ...

Resource segregation by species is a cornerstone ecological concept that may result from several processes such as interspecific competition, and can help structuring communities, in particular parasitoid communities. ...

Tree diversity is one of the most important components of urban ecosystems, because it provides multiple ecological benefits and contributes to human well-being. However, the distribution of urban trees may be spatially ...

The competitive exclusion principle predicts that species exhibit segregation mechanisms to coexist. In the Humboldt Current System, South American sea lions Otaria byronia (SASL) coexist with South American fur seals ...

Intraguild competition may be reduced if ecologically similar species segregate temporally. Using data from 1,596 camera-trap photos, we present the 1st quantitative analyses of the activity patterns of Andean cats (Leopardus ...

Resource partitioning can contribute to species coexistence by redudcing interspecific competition. To understand whether resource partitioning contributes towards sympatric populations of two otariids in Peru's dynamic ...
