Cues of dominance hierarchy, fertility and nestmate recognition in the primitively eusocial wasp Mischocyttarus parallelogrammus (Vespidae: Polistinae: Mischocyttarini)
(Chemoecology, 2020) [Artigo]Chemical communication is pivotal for social insects to ensure proper functioning of their colonies. Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are the most well-known class of compounds used to regulate different types of behavioural ... -
Geographic distributions of Pseudopaludicola boliviana and congeneric long-legged species (Anura: Leiuperinae)
(Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2020) [Artigo]In recent years, the taxonomic knowledge of Pseudopaludicola has increased and it is currently possible to elucidate aspects of the species within this genus such as their geographic distributions. Here we accessed new ... -
Can differences between continental and insular habitats influence the parasites communities associated with the endemic frog Haddadus binotatus ?
(Journal of Helminthology, 2020) [Artigo]Habitats characterized by geographic isolation such as islands have been studied using different organisms as models for understanding the dynamic and insular patterns of biodiversity. Determinants of parasite richness in ... -
External Morphology and Internal Oral Features of the Tadpole of Crossodactylus caramaschii (Anura: Hylodidae)
(Journal of Herpetology, 2019) [Artigo]We describe the larval external morphology and internal oral features of Crossodactylus caramaschii sampled in protected areas of the Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil. The tadpoles of C. caramaschii (Gosner stage 38) ... -
On the Uncertain Taxonomic Identity of Adenomera hylaedactyla (Cope, 1868) and the Composite Type Series of A. andreae (Müller, 1923) (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(Copeia, 2019) [Artigo]Adenomera andreae and A. hylaedactyla are two widespread Amazonian frogs that have been traditionally distinguished from each other by the use of different habitats, toe tip development, and more recently through advertisement ... -
Increasing our knowledge on direct-developing frogs: The ontogeny of Ischnocnema henselii (Anura: Brachycephalidae)
(Zoologischer Anzeiger, 2020) [Artigo]Due to the difficulty in finding newly fresh spawn in natural environments, few embryonic developmental studies have been carried out in anurans with direct development. Here we provide detailed data on the embryonic ... -
A new species of Ischnocnema Reinhardt and Lütken, 1862 (Anura: Brachycephalidae) of the I. Lactea species series from southeastern Brazil
(Zootaxa, 2019) [Artigo]We describe a new species of Ischnocnema from the Serra da Bocaina mountain range, state of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, based on morphological, bioacoustic, and mtDNA data. The new species is retrieved with high support ... -
Feeding alters the preferred body temperature of Cururu toads, Rhinella diptycha (Anura, Bufonidae)
(Comparative Biochemistry And Physiology A-molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2020) [Artigo]Ectothermic organisms depend primarily on external heat sources and behavioural adjustments to regulate body temperature. Under controlled conditions, in a thermal gradient, body temperature often clusters around a more ... -
A comparative acoustic analysis of species of Vitreorana (Anura: Centrolenidae) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Cerrado, with a description of the call of V. baliomma and insights into the taxonomic status of Cerrado populations
(Phyllomedusa, 2020) [Artigo]Advertisement calls are the primary signaling strategy of mating in most anurans. Examining major patterns within and across frog taxa may help to delimit species and understand acoustic communication systems. Herein, the ... -
Spontaneous Tool Use by a Wild Black Lion Tamarin (Leontopithecus chrysopygus)
(International Journal Of Primatology, 2020) [Editorial] -
Fruit resource provisioning for avian frugivores: The overlooked side of effectiveness in seed dispersal mutualisms
(Journal Of Ecology, 2020) [Artigo]Mutualistic interactions between frugivorous birds and fleshy-fruited plants are key processes for both natural plant regeneration and the maintenance of birds relying on fruit resources. However, seed dispersal effectiveness ... -
Systematic Revision of the Rare Bromeligenous Genus Crossodactylodes Cochran 1938 (Anura: Leptodactylidae: Paratehnatobiinae)
(Herpetological Monographs, 2020) [Artigo]Crossodactylodes is a poorly known genus of small-sized bromeligenous frogs, endemic to Brazil. They have a patchy distribution across the mountains of the Atlantic Forest and the campo rupestre ecosystem. To better resolve ... -
Atlantic frugivory: a plant-frugivore interaction data set for the Atlantic Forest
(Ecology, 2017) [Artigo]The data set provided here includes 8,320 frugivory interactions (records of pairwise interactions between plant and frugivore species) reported for the Atlantic Forest. The data set includes interactions between 331 ... -
Predation of treefrogs (Anura: Hylidae) with toxic skin secretions by the black lion tamarin (Leontopithecus chrysopygus, Callitrichinae) (vol 45, pg 910, 2020)

A review of the elusive bicolored iris Snouted Treefrogs (Anura: Hylidae:Scinax uruguayus group)
(Plos One, 2019) [Resenha]The genus Scinax currently includes more than 120 species, recovered in two major clades, the S. catharinae and the S. ruber clades. The latter comprises 75 species, most of which remain unassigned to any species groups, ... -
Speciation Associated with Shifts in Migratory Behavior in an Avian Radiation
(Current Biology, 2020) [Artigo]Migratory animals move up to thousands of kilometers every year [1]. Losses of migration (i.e., migratory drop-offs) occur when individuals of a migratory species stop migrating and establish founder sedentary populations, ... -
