Acoustic communication is a way of information exchange between individuals, and it used by several animal species. Therefore, the detection, recognition correct understanding acoustic signals are key factors in effective communication. The priority effectiveness rather than perfection, being avoids affecting sound-based system One that can affect overlap time frequency during signal transmission, known as masking. type sound cause masking anthropogenic noise, which currently increasing due...
Realistic predictions about the impacts of climate change onbiodiversity requires gathering ecophysiological data and critical thermal maxima (CTMax) is most frequently used index to assess vulnerability species. In present study, we performed a systematic review understand how acclimation altitude affect CTMax estimates for amphibian non-avian reptile We retrieved anurans, salamanders, lizards, snakes, turtles/terrapins. Data allowed perform multilevel random effects meta-analysis answer...
Abstract Bats emit echolocation calls for orientation, foraging, and social interactions. These are mostly species-specific, reliable inventories to assess habitat use, characteristics useful large, species-rich but poorly sampled areas. This is the case of Carajás, in Brazilian Amazonia, a mosaic cave-rich dense forests unique metalophilous savannas (known as canga ), harboring rich bat fauna also industrial iron ore mining, stressing need preserve biodiversity. We used bioacoustics...

The acoustic adaptation hypothesis (AAH) states that the signal of a species must propagate better in its native habitat. Studies have shown certain anuran modify parameters according to environment where they are calling. However, these studies did not verify if modifications improved call's transmission. We investigated whether advertisement calls Pithecopus nordestinus (Phyllomedusidade)propagated more efficiently two habitats has evolved over generations (Caatinga and Atlantic Forest)...
Amphibians are organisms which mainly have a biphasic life cycle. When at the larval stage, their habitat is generally aquatic, and when adults, they become terrestrial. Pond-breeding amphibians sensitive to some disturbances in environment lead decline of population. The interactions between species performed through movement. Movement ecology combines explains movement data with biotic abiotic factors because this, knowing these creatures great ecological importance. We used spool-and-line...
