Many studies in the past decade, mostly temperate countries, have documented effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on species richness, composition, abundance behaviour pollinators. Changes landscape structure are considered to be primary causes limitation pollination services agricultural systems. Here, we review evidence general patterns as well gaps knowledge that could used support development policies for pollinator conservation restoration degraded landscapes. Our results indicate...
Abstract Intracolony aggression among dealated queens of the ponerine ant Odontomachus chelifer leads to a dominance order within colony. Behavioral domination between entails an array stereotyped displays which may escalate from vigorous antennation bouts full mandibular strikes. In extreme situations dominant queen also suspend her subordinate opponent, who remains in pupal posture while being lifted up. As rule individual initiating contest normally wins it. Subordinate assume crouching...
Plant-pollinator networks have been widely used to understand the ecology of mutualistic interactions between plants and animals. While a number general patterns identified, mechanisms underlying structure plant-pollinator are poorly understood. Here we present an agent based model (ABM) that simulates movement bees over heterogeneous landscapes captures pollination events, enabling influence landscape pattern on be explored. Using model, conducted series experiments using virtual...
O comportamento de forrageio polinizadores e dispersores sementes é influenciado pela heterogeneidade recursos no ambiente, sendo importante conhecer a variação espaço-temporal dos fim compreender as relações mutualistas estabelecidas entre plantas animais. Na paisagem estudada, floração Psychotria suterella ocorreu janeiro abril, meses maior pluviosidade ano, apresentou alta sincronia populações. padrão fenológico encontrado na categoria indivíduo se assemelhou ao registrado para categorias...
RESUMO As medidas de distanciamento social derivadas da pandemia COVID-19 alteraram os hábitos consumo dos cidadãos e, consequentemente, a quantidade e composição resíduos sólidos urbanos, com novos desafios para municípios brasileiros. Diante desse contexto, presente pesquisa visou realizar uma análise comparativa, antes ao longo COVID-19, geração domiciliares, serviços saúde, coleta seletiva volumosos Limeira (SP), considerando série temporal janeiro 2016 dezembro 2020.

<title>Abstract</title> Plant-pollinator interactions are critical to terrestrial ecosystem functioning and global food production but experiencing increasing pressures from land use environmental changes. Plant functional traits vegetation structure reflect the responses of local relate directly nesting floral resources available pollinators. Yet, little is known about role in determining organisation plant-pollinator networks, nor on methods predict such networks at broad spatial scales....
Abstract In this paper we present GAIA's findings in four corporate social responsibility projects. Three of them were implemented partnership with Oil & Gas companies and one a mining company. The projects had as the main goal to improve relationship communities companies’ direct influence areas, promote local sustainable development. methodology developed by GAIA comprises communities’ interests encompasses nine stages. 1. Socio-environmental appraisal or inventory, mapping risks,...
Encounters between flowers and invertebrates are key events for the functioning of tropical forests. Assessing structure networks composed interactions those partners leads to a better understanding ecosystem effects environmental factors on ecological processes. Gathering such data is, however, costly time-consuming, especially in highly diverse tropics. We aimed provide comprehensive repository available flower-invertebrate interaction information Atlantic Forest, South American forest...
Plecturocebus ornatus is an endemic vulnerable species due to its population decline and restricted range within the Eastern Plains of Colombia. This region affected by deforestation as a result legal illegal economic activities. The aim this work was analyze presence abundance P. during period urban livestock production expansion (1986-2019) in Villavicencio, municipality most land-use changes associated with regional development represents 3.4 % distribution’s area. analysis performed...
A perda de habitat e a redução da conectividade na paisagem causam diversos problemas ambientais, como extinções diminuição biodiversidade. Restauração ambiental é uma maneira se mitigar esses efeitos visa recuperar áreas naturais, reconectando isoladas vegetação natural. quantidade no entorno dos fragmentos pode ser um importante indicativo escolha áreas, buscando efetividade restauração. Este trabalho tem objetivo analisar nas APAs Corumbataí Piracicaba nos seus municípios, priorizando...
Flowering plant species and their nectar-feeding vertebrates exemplify some of the most remarkable biotic interactions in Neotropics. In Brazilian Atlantic Forest, several birds (especially hummingbirds), bats, non-flying mammals, as well one lizard feed on nectar, often act pollinators contribute to seed output flowering plants. We present a dataset containing information plants visited by sampled at 166 localities Forest. This provides 1902 unique among 515 129 potential vertebrate...
