There is currently little information on the biology of anurans genus Crossodactylus (Leptodactylidae, Hylodinae), which comprise small diurnal frogs that live associated with streams in areas Atlantic Rainforest. In this study, we analyzed some aspects natural history aeneus an area forest state Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil. A total 37 individuals C. were collected during all them inside forest. Most (60%) found rocks. animals day, although active at night. The diet was composed...
We present data on species composition, relative abundance and estimated densities for leaf-litter anuran amphibians from an Atlantic Forest area within the Parque Estadual do Desengano, in state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, based results a short-term survey carried out during winter at altitudes 1000-1500 m. Three sampling methods were used: plot sampling, visual encounter surveys (VES; performed day, twilight, night), pitfall traps. recorded 13 species, with direct-developer Ischnocnema...
The Brazilian Atlantic Forest is one of the richest and most threatened biomes on Earth. In state Rio de Janeiro it presently reduced to less than 20% its original extension, faunal lists are needed for several areas. Here we present a species list amphibians reptiles Estação Ecológica Estadual do Paraíso (EEEP), forest reserve located in central portion state. based both primary (gathered during short-term survey by authors) secondary data (obtained from local reference collection). A total...
We studied the ecology of ticks found in different species a taxocenosis snakes from Serra do Mendanha, an area Atlantic Rainforest located state Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil. Snakes were sampled monthly field during period 48 months. The specific identity hosts and their parasites, number snout-vent length body mass each host recorded. A total 25% parasitized by (larvae, nymphs adult females) Amblyomma rotundatum Koch, 1844 was predominant parasite species. infestation parameters...
We studied the leaf-litter frog community of Estação Ecológica Estadual Paraíso, in Guapimirim, Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil. Herein we combined three sampling methods (large plots, visual encounter surveys and pit-fall traps) to present data on species composition, richness, relative abundance densities. The local assemblage frogs associated was composed by 14 species, belonging nine families. Haddadus binotatus, a direct-developing frog, most abundant community. estimated...

We report a female Physalaemus soaresi Izecksohn, 1965 collected at the Atlantic rainforest of Serra do Mendanha, municipality Rio de Janeiro, state southeastern Brazil. Known only from two localities (and probably extinct in one), P. is considered threatened species Brazil and presumably Janeiro. Despite new record, still fits into status endangered requires full protection all areas where it occurs.
As unidades de conservação (UCs) proteção integral foram criadas com o principal objetivo preservar patrimônio ambiental natural que abrigam dentro seus perímetros, em especial os elementos bióticos, havendo a possibilidade uso público conforme condicionantes predeterminadas no plano manejo e zoneamento estabelecido. Contudo, procura por áreas naturais como alternativas ao lazer, sobretudo nos parques, vem aumentando popularização do lazer turismo ambientes naturais. Se somarmos aos...

RESUMO The Piperaceae family has a wide distribution and species richness, mainly in the Amazonian Atlantic forests. In Brazil, there are 474 registered distributed genera Manekia Trel., Peperomia Ruiz & Pav., Piper L. fruits arranged spikes, racemes or umbels of with bats being their main dispersers. present study aimed to morphologically describe seeds Parque Estadual da Serra Tiririca, located State Rio de Janeiro, municipalities Niterói Maricá. Seeds from herbariums were analyzed...
A Lagoa de São Bento com seus 6,9 ha é o resquício um antigo alagado que cobria boa parte da restinga Itaipuaçu, Maricá, estado do Rio Janeiro. Apesar urbanização entorno, a área abriga uma elevada riqueza espécies fauna e flora, algumas ameaçadas extinção. presta serviços ecossistêmicos representam economia verbas públicas, além ser local usado em pesquisas potencial turístico, mas sofre diversos impactos pela falta divulgação, proteção não recebe devida atenção governo municipal.

Large mammals, especially felids such as Mountain Lion, Puma concolor (Linnaeus, 1771), are disappearing from their original habitats, due to the loss of natural areas and hunting, in metropolitan regions. In city Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, P. had not been observed for almost a century, despite having forest fragments large 10,000 ha. Here we present records that confirm reappearance this species where it has considered extirpated.
Abstract Lagoa do São Bento is a coastal restinga wetland, remnant of paleolake, located in Maricá, RJ. The study aimed to inventory native aquatic plants, make floristic comparison with other lagoons and analyze the regeneration this community after anthropic impacts. In analysis 45 species were listed, 39 which are Angiosperms six Ferns. Aeschynomene paniculata, Hymenachne amplexicaulis, Montrichardia linifera Torenia thouarsii new records for municipality Tabebuia cassinoides threatened....
