1. Evolução e ecologia de tricomas em Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae): estruturas morfológicas de defesa anti-herbivoria? / Evolution and ecology of trichomes in Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae): morphological structures of anti-herbivory defense?
This thesis focused on the evolutionary-ecology of trichomes in the tribe Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae), and in the potential defensive role of these structures against herbivores. More specifically, we characterized four trichome morphotypes found in vegetative plant parts of representatives of the Bignonieae, as well as studied the macro-evolutionary patterns

2. Interações ecológicas em Malpighiaceae no cerrado: compartilhamento de guildas de herbívoros e variações nos resultados da interação formiga-planta / Ecological interactions in Malpighiaceae in the Cerrado: sharing of guilds from herbivores and variations in the results of ant-plant interaction
Ecological interactions represent essential tools for a better understanding of natural communities, having in animal-plant relationships important models for study. For that, become needful phenological analyses of plants, capable of demonstrating the flowering strategies and with it the ways of temporal organization of resources available for herbivores. T

3. História natural e interação flores-besouros em espécies de Cerrado / Natural history and flower-beetle interactions in Cerrado species
Plant-animal interactions, such as pollination, are a key element in many terrestrial communities. The study of who interacts with whom is an important approach for understanding ecological and evolutionary processes. In some tropical communities, up to one quarter of all plant species may be pollinated by beetles. They are an ancient and much diversified in

4. Remoção de sementes por formigas, aves e roedores em área de Cerrado e seu efeito sobre o recrutamento de plântulas / Seed removal by ants, birds and rodents in a cerrado area and its effects on seedling recruitment
Many plant populations are affected by seed consumers since these can affect the rates and patterns of seedling recruitment. Ants, birds and rodents are main agents of seed removal. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relative importance of ants, birds and rodents on seed removal in different types of Cerrado vegetations and to determine th

5. Ecologia e comportamento do Cuxiú-Preto (Chiropotes Satanas) na paisagem fragmentada da Amazônia Oriental. / The Ecology and Behaviour of the Black Bearded Saki (Chiropotes satanas) in the Fragmented Landscape of Eastern Amazonia
Bearded sakis are frugivores specialised for seed predation. The black bearded saki (Chiropotes satanas) is endemic to a densely populated and deforested area in eastern Amazonia in Brazil and is threatened with extinction. The principal objective of this study was to research the behaviour and ecology of two groups of black bearded sakis living under differ

6. Interações entre o morcego Sturnira lilium (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) e plantas da família Solanaceae / Interactions between the bat Sturnira lilium (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) and plants of the family Solanaceae
Bats have a high ecological importance in the Neotropics for they are highly diverse, very abundant and interact with many plant and animal species. Phyllostomid bats of the subfamily Stenodermatinae are specialized frugivores and important seed dispersers, and Sturnira lilium prefers fruits of the Solanaceae, a family of high ecological and economical value
