Scientists have long been trying to understand why the Neotropical region holds highest diversity of birds on Earth. Recently, there has increased interest in morphological variation between and within species, how climate, topography, anthropogenic pressures may explain affect phenotypic variation. Because data are not always available for many species at local or regional scale, we limited our understanding intra- interspecies spatial Here, present ATLANTIC BIRD TRAITS, a set that includes...
Abstract A decline in species number often occurs after forest fragmentation and habitat loss, which usually results the loss of ecological functions a reduction functional diversity fragments. However, it is uncertain whether these lost are consistently maintained throughout continuous forests, so importance forests remains unknown. Point counts were used to assess both taxonomic specialist generalist birds from sampling primary compared with fragments order investigate responses groups...
Human activities have modified landscapes worldwide, promoting fragmentation and isolation of forest habitats. Such landscape modifications are responsible for changes in species composition due to extinction colonization events. Forest dynamism is usually affected by when remaining fragments small isolated, but more stable large connected. In this study we verified bird during 23 years monitoring at the Mata dos Godoy State Park (PEMG). We aimed evaluate avian community reserve, as well its...
Seasonal variation in tropical and subtropical systems can have different effects on bird species depending the resources they use how them. However, despite recent research advances, knowledge of drivers presence abundance seasons is still limited for most species. In these poorly understood systems, examining seasonal changes composition from perspective traits related to resource provide insight into what may be driving movements between areas throughout year types are more subject...
