Bats and ectoparasites, Streblidae Nycteribiidae, are good models to study ecological interactions due their specificity. Knowledge about the between these groups is heterogeneous fragmented throughout Brazilian territory, mainly in southern region – influenced by temperate climate with bat fauna presenting elements from both tropical areas. We evaluated interaction of parasites bats an Atlantic Forest area, Brazil. captured ectoparasites monthly 10 campaigns using mist nets. To describe...
Species distribution models are not usually calibrated with biotic predictors. Our study question is: does the use of predictors matter in predicting species distribution? We aim to assess importance output Brazilian squirrel ( Sciurus aestuans ) throughout South America based on fruits Syagrus romanzoffiana – most consumed food resource. hypothesized that model S. using its main resource as a predictor will be more accurate comparison without predictor. built three different models: (i) ;...
Habitat selection has long been a central theme in ecology and historically considered both physiological responses ecological factors affecting species establishment. Investigating habitat patterns at different scales can provide important information on the relative roles of environmental influencing organisms’ abilities to use their surrounding habitat. This work aimed investigating which determine by Rhinella icterica tadpoles, also took opportunity investigate how scale tadpoles data...
