Rice represents the main staple food for more than half of world's population, playing an essential role in security and economic growth. One major pests affecting this crop is striped rice stem borer moth (Chilo suppressalis), a widespread species found Australasia, Asia southern Europe. Bats are paramount insect consumers their as natural pest controllers agriculture has been increasingly acknowledged, including paddies. In study we quantify, first time Europe, value ecosystem services...
Abstract Animals modify their behaviours and interactions in response to changing environments. In bats, environmental adaptations are reflected echolocation signalling that is used for navigation, foraging communication. However, the extent drivers of plasticity not fully understood, hindering our identification bat species with ultrasonic detectors, particularly cryptic similar calls. We a combination DNA barcoding, intensive trapping, roost emergence surveys acoustic recording study...
Accurate assessment of great ape populations is a prerequisite for conservation planning. Indirect survey methods using nest and dung, set conversion parameters related to decay rates, are increasingly used. Most surveys use the standing crop count (SCNC) method, whereby nests counted along transects estimated density converted into chimpanzee an often non-local rate. The rate thought introduce substantial bias population estimates given that rates vary with location, season, rainfall,...
Cabo Polonio (Uruguay) is a popular but atypical centre for beach vacations, because tourists spend days without electricity, running water and vehicle. There continental pinniped colony that acts as secondary attraction, there not direct control over tourist visits to the rookery. Our objective was evaluate experience of visitors this colony. We used questionnaires determine information by analyse their attitudes towards conservation. To validate questionnaires, we also conducted...
