Abstract Several herpetofaunal inventories have been conducted in the Neotropical region. However, many areas remain to be investigated, and this is particularly true of transition zones between distinct ecoregions. Herein we describe richness, species composition, abundance herpetofauna from a scarcely known portion Brazilian Cerrado assess taxonomic similarities assemblages among sampled habitats neighbouring A mid-term herpetological inventory was May 2009 January 2011 at Serra das Araras...
O Brasil possui 1.801 espécies de aves e o Cerrado abriga 856 dessas espécies. Esse bioma que cobre 24% do território nacional é a maior, mais distinta, rica e, provavelmente ameaçada savana tropical mundo, lhe tornou "hot spot" mundial área prioritária para conservação da biodiversidade. A Estação Ecológica Serra das Araras (EESA) ocupa 28.700 hectares no sudoeste Mato Grosso, faz parte Província Serrana, um corredor serras com cerca 400 km comprimento por 40 largura, qual conecta à...
Abstract Differences between habitats and seasonal changes in climate are some of the main factors responsible for shaping diversity patterns biological community structures. In this context, anurans considered excellent models ecological studies due to their high sensitivity environmental changes. This study analyzed how differences open forested formations seasonality influence taxonomic, functional, phylogenetic anuran assemblages an area Neotropical savanna. Parameters taxonomic (species...
Foram avaliadas a magnitude, composição e padrões da mortalidade de vertebrados silvestres, partir colisão com veículo em estradas no Cerrado. Mesmo sendo próximas, estas diferem tempo que estão pavimentadas, volume tráfego, paisagem qualidade cobertura asfáltica. Quatro trechos 70 km extensão localizados Cerrado do sudoeste estado Mato Grosso foram amostrados mensalmente junho 2009 maio 2010, por dois observadores um velocidade média 40km/h. Sendo percorridos 840km rodovia 2.520km total....
Knowledge of blood parasites in Brazilian chelonians is limited, since they have been recorded only six species. Mesoclemmys vanderhaegei (Bour) a freshwater turtle with wide geographic distribution Brazil, but there little information about its natural history. This paper reports on study the prevalence and infection intensity haemogregarine two subpopulations M. vanderhaegei. The was conducted areas Cerrado Upper Paraguay River basin state Mato Grosso, between November 2010 August 2013....
Abstract Differences in habitat complexity and structure can directly influence the composition, diversity, of species assemblages. Measurements functional phylogenetic diversity complement commonly used measurements taxonomic elucidating relationships between species, their traits, evolutionary history. In this study, we evaluated how mosaic open forested formations a federal conservation unit western portion Brazilian Cerrado savanna influences taxonomic, functional, lizard Lizards were...
Ecological niche is the multidimensional space comprising resources used by an organism. Intraspecific variation in resource exploitation common reptile populations to maximize coexistence of individuals. The use stable isotope analysis effective tool when there are variations exploitation, since it can provide quantitative information about food consumption and habitat use. Mesoclemmys vanderhaegei (Bour, 1973) a medium-sized turtle with limited distribution south central Brazil Paraguay....
The presence of the gymnophthalmid lizard Cercosaura parkeri (Ruibal, 1952) in western Brazil is confirmed, based on vouchered records for localities states Mato Grosso and do Sul. Morphological variation a series 20 males 17 females also presented.
Em razao da falta de material especifico consulta que consolide as principais referencias cientificas e o acumulo do conhecimento tecnico sobre metodologias amostragem, coleta analise dados relativos aos quelonios continentais brasileiros, materializou-se este trabalho, ha muito almejado pela sociedade interessada no assunto. Houve um grande esforco para compatibilizar metodologicamente as particularidades das especies ambientes em areas com lacunas cujos parâmetros se adequam...
New locality records and distribution map for the recently described Elachistocleis magnus are here presented. Originally from Rondônia state, western Brazil (Amazonia), E. was until now recorded only two additional localities in same state. The new presented herein, which considerably enlarge known range of species, include three Brazilian states – Amazonas, Pará, Mato Grosso (including Cerrado). We provide color description species life, discuss variation habitats used by this species.

Ranacephala hogei is a South American freshwater turtle considered one of the 25 most endangered chelonian species in world. Endemic to Atlantic Forest hotspot southeastern Brazil, conservation status R. subject continuous assessment at various levels. However, scarcity data regarding this species, particularly its geographic range, challenges these evaluations. In an effort address gaps, we conducted comprehensive long-term inventory using different methods study species. Our efforts...
ABSTRACT As commonly observed in turtles, sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is pronounced the Neotropical freshwater turtle Mesoclemmys vanderhaegei (Bour, 1973), a species which females are usually larger than males. We studied SSD two populations of M. from Brazilian Cerrado savannah, based on 245 specimens captured between November 2010 and August 2013. The carapace length largest male was 201 mm (9.15% shorter that female, 220 mm). mean sizes males did not differ populations. However,...
