A comunidade de primatas não-humanos em remanescentes florestais do território indígena Potiguara, na Paraíba, Brasil
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-05-29)
Estimates about groups size, density and composition of primates are commons in the papers, because they are a solid base for futures studies in landscape ecology and ethology, for example. They are also essential to know ...
Bens e serviços ecossistêmicos da Bacia Hidrográfica da Represa Guarapiranga: análise da evolução histórica e valoração ambiental, entre os anos de 1986, 1996 e 2010
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-09-30)
The ecosystem functions can be considered goods and services when they serve to generate and maintain the human activities and well being. However, the economic markets generally neglect the participation of those services ...
Uso de hábitat e período de atividade do sapinho botão de ouro Brachycephalus ephippium
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-31)
Anurans are ectothermics and have permeable skin; therefore, they respond to changes in humidity and temperature conditions of the microhabitat. Thus, these environmental factors, as well as prey availability, must influence ...
A quantidade de mata como principal influência em bandos mistos de aves de Mata Atlântica fragmentada
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-31)
Forest fragmentation and habitat loss are considered the major threats to biodiversity. Studies of the effects of these processes on the species should also include landscape analysis rather than just local analysis as in ...
Termorregulação e desempenho fisiológico de Thorapa taophora (Anura: Cycloramphidae)
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-31)
Ectotherms must regulate body tempetarute inside a tolerable range of temperature to optmize physiological functions. In this context, behavioural thermoregulation is an important strategy for metabolic compensation. Shifts ...
Comportamento termorregulatório e alimentação em Iguana iguana (Squamata, Iguanidae)
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-06-30)
Few environmental factors exert so much influence on the physiology of animals as temperature. Each activity carried out by an animal occurs in a range of body temperatures that is physiologically appropriate. Some reptiles ...
Ilhas de floresta nas alturas: inferindo processos históricos associados às distribuições de aves montanas da Mata Atlântica
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-31)
The mountains of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest have a high degree of endemism and its biogeographical history is poorly explored. One hypothesis for the diversification of montane organisms, related to the refuge theory, ...
Efeito da heterogeneidade da paisagem sobre redes de interações plantas-polinizadores
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-30)
Most studies about the effects of anthropogenic landscape changes on biodiversity have focused on parameters such as species richness and abundance. Few are those that aim to understand the effects of these disturbances ...
História natural e mecanismos utilizados na navegação no opilião Heteromitobates discolor (Arachnida,Opiliones)
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-27)
Animals may use external or internal cues to navigate towards an original location. Here we studied the homing ability of the harvestman Heteromitobates discolor (Arachnida, Opiliones). We tested the importance of (1) their ...
Uso de químicos no reconhecimento sexual de opiliões (Arachnida: Opiliones)"
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-30)
Several arthropod species use chemicals to detect sexual partners. In harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones) there are evidences that chemicals have an important role in intra-specific communication. Using the behavior of ...
