Abstract While environmental alterations have made Homo sapiens the hyperkeystone species of globe, biotic homogenization initiated a new era, “Homogenocene.” Still, some terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems in South America are considered pristine wild, which can lead to general faith that economic progress is consistent with conservation strategies, even without scientific support. We compiled anthropogenic threats fish biodiversity hierarchical meta‐analysis, along an evidence synthesis...
The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is to produce a large-scale inventory, covering entire from Mexico and Caribbean in north southern limits Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distribution records, with unique georeferenced coordinates, represented by occurrence abundance data. number of species numerous orders are as follows: Characiformes...
Abstract: Aim We investigated the ichthyofauna parasite component community across a gradient of anthropogenic pressures Guaraguaçu River, south Brazil, Neotropical river central importance for biodiversity conservation. Methods After fish sampling, all were identified, measured, weighed and eviscerated. The viscera gills inspected screening subsequent identification. Parasite diversity estimators calculated most abundant host species. Results A total 159 specimens from 12 species examined,...
The tropical tanner grass, Urochloa arrecta, is one of the worst aquatic plant invaders in Brazilian freshwater ecosystems. This study aimed to compare beds macrophytes dominated and without U. arrecta Guaraguaçu River, a subtropical tidal river South Brazil, analyze effects that this invasive grass has on biodiversity native at two spatial scales. We compared macrophyte by without, considering species richness, composition, beta diversity scales variation: among-beds within-beds. expected...
ABSTRACT Aim Changes in landscape configuration significantly impact ecosystems and the services they provide, including disease regulation for both humans wildlife. Land use conversion usually favors disturbed‐adapted species, which are often known reservoirs of zoonotic parasites, thereby potentially escalating spillover events (i.e., transmission parasites to new hosts, humans). Here we aimed investigate how alterations influence distribution co‐occurrence potential hosts epizootic...
Analizamos 54 especímenes de Hoplias aff. malabaricus colectados entre marzo 2010 y 2011 en la planicie inundación Neotropical del alto rio Paraná, Brasil. Todos los hospederos fueron parasitados por lo menos con una especie Monogenea. Las especies parásitos las mayores prevalencias fueran Urocleidoides cuiabai (96,29 %) U. malabaricusi (92,59%). La comunidad ectoparásitos branquias ha presentado patrón distribución agregado. fue dominante muestra (C > 0,25). abundancia parasitismo...

Land use conversion usually favors disturbed-adapted species, often known reservoirs of zoonotic parasites, thereby potentially escalating spillover events (i.e., transmission parasites to new hosts, humans). While there is growing evidence indicating a higher risk anthropogenic landscapes, effect on small mammal distribution intricate...
The Environmental Impact Assessment is an obligatory document for the License activities or enterprises that might modify environment.Despite of all national and international guidelines, environmental impact studies reports still have a number problems in their implementation analysis.Thus, it necessary to analyze various methodologies used diagnosis efficiency identifying possible impacts area.The main objective following paper was compare different Preliminary Reports city terms reference...

La perca americana, Micropterus salmoides (Lacepéde, 1802), es un pez centrarchido de América del Norte que ahora tiene una distribución global debido a introducciones extendidas por pesca deportiva. Su introducción en Brasil data 1920, principalmente las regiones sur. Sabemos M. ha generado serie impactos los ecosistemas se establecido. Sin embargo, sus parásitos son desconocidos. Esto genera la posibilidad nuevas interacciones y potenciales impactos. Por tanto, el objetivo este estudio fue...
