TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a species threat abatement and restoration (STAR) metric that is scalable across species, threats and geographies and quantifies the contributions that abating threats and restoring habitats in specific places offer towards reducing extinction risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial and temporal patterns of bird species diversity in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso, Brazil: implications for conservation.
TL;DR: Analysis of a three-year bird survey in the pantanal of Poconé revealed that most of the resident and seasonal birds are habitat generalists, using two or more habitats.
Journal Article
Predation on Atta laevigata (Smith 1858) (Formicidae Attini) by Canthon virens (Mannerheim 1829) (Coleoptera Scarabaeidae)
Fernando A. O. Silveira,F.Z. Vaz-De-Mello,Geraldo Wilson Fernandes,Jean Carlos Santos,Leonardo R. Viana,S.A. Falqueto +5 more
TL;DR: For the first time, ants successfully removing beetles from their backs are reported, which may account for the low predation efficiency of C. virens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nematode‐induced galls in Miconia albicans: effect of host plant density and correlations with performance
Leonardo R. Viana,Fernando A. O. Silveira,Jean Carlos Santos,Luiz H. Rosa,Juvenil Enrique Cares,Adalberto C. Café-Filho,Geraldo Wilson Fernandes +6 more
TL;DR: Despite being seldom studied in tropical ecosystems, nematodes may play an important role in plant fitness and in structuring tropical communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging patterns of the leaf-cutter ant Atta laevigata (Smith) (Myrmicinae: Attini) in an area of cerrado vegetation
TL;DR: A combinacao da temperatura, umidade, tamanho de ninho e especializacao de microhabitats parecem ser os fatores reguladores mais importantes dos padroes de forrageamento de A. laevigata.
