Knowledge of feeding habits not only contributes information related to the resources that individuals need survive and breed, but also leads insights about interactions between a species its environment. The optimal foraging theory explains diet selection by several attributes trophic scenario such as availability, diversity, quality predictability food. Other models propose digestive tract mass increases under high metabolic demands cold, affecting food choice intake. Thus, emerges...
Abstract Variation in life‐history traits is shaped by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Climate influences the availability of energy nutrients environment, thus animals’ balance, their allocation resources to reproduction ultimately, fitness. Temperature reported as a prevailing influence on investment reproduction, diverse hypotheses propose mechanisms which it occurs. Central external limits acquisition have been traditionally assumed. Hence, digestive limitations, periods low food or...
Abstract The coexistence of ecologically similar species is facilitated by differential use resources along habitat, diet, and/or temporal niche axes. We used feces non-native rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), hare (Lepus europaeus), goat (Capra hircus), and the native plains viscacha (Lagostomus maximus) to compare utilization spatial trophic in an arid ecosystem Argentina. expected herbivores present responses at least one axes (habitat trophic) associated with seasonal changes resource...
The introduction of exotic species can cause important changes in the structure and function natural ecosystems. This note reports European rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus, into Villavicencio Natural Reserve Mendoza, Argentina. Individuals were introduced from a breeding facility within reserve. study assessed possible establishment as well its potential dispersal corridors. Our findings suggest that rabbit could be using riverbeds We consider O. cuniculus is stage become invader new...
RESUMEN.La ganadería impacta los ecosistemas, particularmente a través del consumo y dispersión de especies introducidas que afectan la ora nativa.La semillas vegetación introducida por mamíferos exóticos es un ejemplo facilitación entre exóticas.En este trabajo se abordaron tres aspectos (composición dieta, viabilidad germinación semillas) para evaluar el rol ganado doméstico en Rosa rubiginosa, rosa mosqueta, bordes vegas baja altura provincia Mendoza.Se recolectaron heces frescas vacuno...

Rodents are an important component of South America fauna. Their high diversity has motivated researchers to continually review their taxonomy, genetic diversity, species limits, and phylogenetic relationships. Here, we applied DNA-barcodes for assessing the taxonomic in two major lineages American rodents: caviomorphs sigmodontines. We analysed 335 COI barcodes 34 morphologically determined from 39 localities along central Andes arid lands Argentina. Neighbour-joining maximum likelihood...
