1. Natural diet of Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787) (Crustacea, Decapoda, Brachyura) from the Northern Coast of São Paulo, Brazil
Abstract Decapod crustaceans have a wide variety of feeding habits, alternating among herbivory, predation, saprophagy, and filtration. The occupation of various trophic positions in the food web is a key feature in the evolution of the group. Thus, we analyzed the natural diet of the crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787), commonly known as the ghost crab

2. Phytoplankton, Trophic State and Ecological Potential in reservoirs in the State of São Paulo, Brazil
Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho foi estabelecer Potencial Ecológico de alguns reservatórios do estado de São Paulo, tendo como elemento de qualidade biológica o fitoplâncton. Amostras de água integrando a coluna d’água foram tomadas nas zonas lótica, central e de barragem dos reservatórios Igaratá, Atibainha, Paiva Castro, Rio Grande, Itupararan

4. Las Podostemaceae como hábitat para los macroinvertebrados en arroyos de Misiones (Argentina)
ABSTRACT Podostemaceae are important components of the trophic networks of rheophilic environments but their importance as habitats for invertebrates is little known. In this study, the abundance and taxa richness of macroinvertebrate assemblages associated with Podostemum distichum and Podostemum muelleri (Malpighiales: Podostemaceae) in two low order strea

5. Changes in trophic characteristics of two fish species of Astyanax (Teleostei: Characidae) in response to aquatic pollution
ABSTRACT The trophic plasticity of most fish species of Astyanax Baird & Girard, 1854 in response to environmental changes and resource availability is high. This work evaluates the differences in the trophic characteristics of two congeneric species, Astyanax taeniatus (Jenyns, 1842) and Astyanax lacustris (Lütken, 1875), in Rio das Velhas Basin, which is

6. Structural differences in mammal assemblages between savanna ecosystems of the Colombian Llanos
Abstract The Colombian Orinoquia region is characterized by a high diversity of mammals, which is associated with complex ecosystems that include large extensions of Neotropical savannas (known locally as “Llanos Orientales”). Despite accelerated anthropogenic transformations in savanna ecosystems, the knowledge to design effective conservation strategie

7. Limnology of shallow lakes of the semi-arid Central Pampa of Argentina
Resumo Objetivo No Pampa Central da Argentina, há três regiões fitogeográficas criadas pela diminuição da precipitação vinda do oeste. Essa região possui um grande número de lagos sendo a maioria desses temporários com hidroperíodos definidos por ciclos climáticos, embora alterados pela ação antrópica. Alguns desses lagos foram estudados co

8. Ecología trófica, dimorfismo sexual y parámetros reproductivos en el lagarto endémico Andino Liolaemus vallecurensis, Argentina
ABSTRACT The feeding habits, sexual dimorphism and reproductive parameters of Liolaemus vallecurensis (Pereyra, 1992) were assessed in an Andean sector of Argentina. We determined the total volume, number, and occurrence frequency of each prey item and calculated the relative importance indexes. Trophic indices (Levins) and diversity indices were applied as

9. Diel Variations and Ecological Aspects in Fish Assemblages of a Sandy Beach in the Semi-Arid Region of Northeast Brazil.
ABSTRACT For the demersal fish that inhabit sandy beaches, the variation between day and night periods represents a determinant factor in their behavior, especially for species that live in shallow waters. This research aims at determining whether there are differences in the fish assemblage structure of the sandy beach of São Cristóvão, RN, Brazil, betwe

10. Effects of season, sex and age on the diet of Homonota fasciata (Squamata, Phyllodactylidae) from Monte region of Argentina
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the diet of the gecko Homonota fasciata (Duméril & Bibron, 1836) in a population from Monte of San Juan Province, Argentina, and to analyze possible temporal, sexual, and ontogenetic variations in feeding behavior. We determined the total volume, number, and occurrence frequency of each prey item and calculated the r

11. Isotopic variation among Amazonian floodplain woody plants and implications for food-web research
Isotopic variation within food sources adds uncertainty to models intended to reconstruct trophic pathways. Understanding this variation is pivotal for planning sampling protocols for food-web research. This study investigates natural variation in C and N stable isotopes among plant species in two western Amazon flooded forests with contrasting watershed bio

12. Effect of Bacillus sphaericus Neide on Anopheles (Diptera: Culicidae) and associated insect fauna in fish ponds in the Amazon
ABSTRACTWe analyzed the effects of Bacillus sphaericus on Anopheles larvae and on the associated insect fauna in fish farming ponds. Five breeding sites in the peri-urban area of the city of Manaus, AM, Brazil, were studied. Seven samples were collected from each breeding site and B. sphaericus was applied and reapplied after 15 days. The samples were made a
