Parasites of the genus Plasmodium , responsible for lizard malaria, are widely distributed and taxonomically diverse. Molecular techniques provide valuable insights into evolutionary relationships species lineages. However, available data still scarce, emphasizing need taxonomy-focused studies. We investigated occurrence infection in free-living lizards Brazilian Cerrado using an integrative approach based on amplification/sequencing cytb gene microscopic analysis. Among 302 screened, 61...
Environmental temperatures influence ectotherms’ physiology and capacity to perform activities necessary for survival reproduction. Time available those is determined by thermal tolerances environmental temperatures. Estimates of activity time might enhance our ability predict suitable areas species’ persistence in face climate warming, compared the exclusive use temperatures, without considering tolerances. We compare estimates geographic distribution a tropical lizard, Tropidurus torquatus...
Understanding how and why biological communities are organized over space time is a major challenge can aid biodiversity conservation in times of global changes. Herein, spatial-temporal variation the structure velvet ant was examined along forest-savanna gradient Brazilian Cerrado to assess roles environmental filters interspecific interactions upon community assembly. Velvet ants were sampled using 25 arrays Y-shaped pitfall traps with drift fences for one year an from cerrado sensu...
Caudal autotomy is a dramatic adaptation used by many lizard species to evade predators. Most studies date indicate that caudal impairs locomotor performance. Surprisingly, some bearing the longest tails show negligible impacts of on sprint speed. Part this variation has been attributed lineage effects. For first time, we model effects performance gymnophthalmid lizard, Micrablepharus atticolus, characterized long and bright blue tail. To improve accuracy, incorporated several covariates. We...

Abstract It is repeatedly stressed the need to characterize extant biodiversity in tropical ecosystems. However, inventory studies are still progressing slowly dry ecosystems, leading underestimation of their true and hindering conservation efforts. In this study, we present primary secondary data, along with an updated list amphibians reptiles from two localities São Francisco-Gurguéia region Piauí. Additionally, compare species composition between nine areas within Caatinga, which were...
Barueiro (Dipteryx alata Vog.) is one of the species native to Brazilian cerrado that has economic potential. Thus, for implantation commercial orchards this fruit tree, it important produce quality seedlings. This study aimed evaluate growth barueiro seedlings under different substrates containing organic residues in municipality Nova Xavantina-MT. The experimental design used was randomized blocks (RBD), with 7 treatments (soil (control); soil + bovine manure (2: 1); coffee husk (3: humus...
