Patterns of resource use in loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) from the Southwestern Atlantic OceanNARA Subscribed
The Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) is an important feeding and developmental area for loggerhead turtle ( Caretta caretta ). However, long-term patterns of resource use across life stages and sexes remain poorly understood for the species in this region. Here, we used stable isotope analysis (SIA) of sequential layers of carapace scutes to investigate resource use of loggerhead turtles in the SWAO across life stages and se...
The Atlantic goliath grouper ( Epinephelus itajara ) is the largest species of grouper in the Atlantic Ocean and is classified as critically endangered in Brazil. This study compared the isotopic ratios of carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) between the muscle tissue and dorsal‐fin rays of 37 juveniles to assess fin rays as a non‐lethal alternative to muscle tissue sampling. The δ 13 C values in rays were significantly highe...
Scientometric analysis and literature synthesis of 60 years of science on the Atlantic goliath grouper ( Epinephelus itajara )NARA Subscribed
Here, the authors investigate the evolution of scientific literature on the Atlantic goliath grouper ( Epinephelus itajara ), the largest grouper species in the Atlantic. This species was considered threatened according to the IUCN for nearly three decades due to overfishing and has been protected from fishing in a large part of its range. For the purpose of evaluating the scientific production on an endangered species banned...
AMAZONIA CAMTRAP: A data set of mammal, bird, and reptile species recorded with camera traps in the Amazon forestNARA Subscribed
The Amazon forest has the highest biodiversity on Earth. However, information on Amazonian vertebrate diversity is still deficient and scattered across the published, peer‐reviewed, and gray literature and in unpublished raw data. Camera traps are an effective non‐invasive method of surveying vertebrates, applicable to different scales of time and space. In this study, we organized and standardized camera trap records from dif...
NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal specie...
Macroecological correlates and spatial patterns of anuran description dates in the Brazilian CerradoNARA Subscribed
Aim To quantify the relationship between the description dates of anuran species in the Brazilian Cerrado and some macroecological traits, and to verify the spatial patterns of average description dates and their correlation with human occupation and biodiversity knowledge. Location Brazilian Cerrado (South America). Methods The average date of description of 131 species of anurans found in 181 cells overlaying the Brazilian C...
