Abstract The Amazon forest has the highest biodiversity on Earth. However, information Amazonian vertebrate diversity is still deficient and scattered across published, peer‐reviewed, gray literature in unpublished raw data. Camera traps are an effective non‐invasive method of surveying vertebrates, applicable to different scales time space. In this study, we organized standardized camera trap records from regions compile most extensive data set inventories mammal, bird, reptile species ever...
Abstract Floodplain areas comprise some 30% of the area in Amazon, but are currently under severe anthropogenic threat. Across Amazon Basin, forest‐dwelling non‐volant mammals play crucial roles maintaining integrity forest functionality, yet have been poorly studied fluvial island forests. Mammal assemblages may be affected by edaphic characteristics that operate indirectly via food nutritional quality, patch attributes, and/or can modulated disturbances. Here, we conducted systematic and...
Abstract Mammals can influence ecosystem functioning through essential ecological processes. In patchy landscapes, mammalian diversity be correlated with productivity its effect on resource availability. However, mammals comprise species contrasting habitat use and requirements, it is unknown whether the diversity–productivity relationship changes as a function of mammal species’ traits. We meta‐analytical techniques to quantify assess richness abundance correlates positively productivity....
Abstract Insular environments are among the most endangered ecosystems as they face a myriad of anthropogenic stressors. Forest mammals perform wide range ecological services, with their persistence being vital for ecosystem functionality in both natural and artificial islands. Studies revealed that shrinkage island size usually leads to decay mammal species richness abundance patchy landscapes. However, species‐area (SARs) abundance‐area (AARs) relationships can differ insular environments:...
<p>Animais resgatados passam um período em cativeiro antes de serem devolvidos a natureza. Durante esse é fundamental que os animais apresentem comportamentos mais próximos dos apresentados na natureza, e enriquecimento ambiental uma forma assegurar o bem estar animal cativeiro. O objetivo deste estudo foi i) descrever repertório comportamental indivíduos do tamanduá-mirim (<em>Tamandua tetradactyla</em>) (Ordem Pilosa), determinar qual comportamento frequente; ii) avaliar...
Abstract Medium to large rainforest mammals are key conservation flagship groups that offer non‐redundant ecosystem functions, but anthropic pressures, such as illegal hunting, may strongly affect their occupancy in Amazonia. We combined camera traps and models assess the influence of distance from human settlements, number families per settlement synergetic effect average weight 27 species on probability mammals. Specifically, we classified mammal according game preferences hunters (i.e. a...
<p>Em geral, animais resgatados passam um período em cativeiro para avaliação da condição física e capacidade de sobrevivência antes retornarem a natureza. Durante este período, os devem ser estimulados através enriquecimento ambiental alimentar manterem comportamentos similares aos apresentados meio natural. Este estudo foi realizado com seis indivíduos <em>Rhea americana</em> no bioma Cerrado, Goiás. O objetivo deste trabalho avaliar diversidade emas, uma comparação entre...
<p>No ambiente natural, os animais são expostos a uma grande quantidade de ameaças sobrevivência. Considerar ecologia do medo é importante para estimar o papel ecossistêmico que predadores desempenham nas comunidades, vez um predador pode provocar não somente respostas baseadas em densidade (<em>i.e</em>., remoção indivíduos população), como também comportamentais, podem resultar efeitos cascata. Comportamentos defensivos relativamente simples serem avaliados situação...
Abstract The nutrient content of soils is considered a productivity key factor. Sediment input from Amazonian rivers one the natural sources soil fertility for fluvial islands and riverbank flooded forests. Despite importance factors ecosystems, few edaphic studies along riverine sediment-gradients have been undertaken in tropical areas. current study provides step forward by describing nutrients mixed water (sediment-poor black with sediment-rich whitewater) archipelago. To investigate how...
