1. Trophic ecology of citrus pests based on stable isotope analysis
ABSTRACT: Macrodactylus pumilio Burm. (Coleoptera: Scarabeidae) and Naupactus cervinus (Boh.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are considered primary pests in citrus crops in Brazil, causing damage to plants and decreasing productivity. However, few studies investigate the ecology of these insects. In this context, the use of stable isotopes analysis (SIA) emerge

2. A Bayesian analysis of the parasitic ecology in Jenynsia multidentata(Pisces: Anablepidae)
ABSTRACT Jenynsia multidentata Jenyns, 1842 (one-sided livebearers) are euryhaline viviparous fish of small size, used in the laboratory experiment, important as resource for biological control of mosquito’s larva and a key species to recover eutrophic lakes. Works have been published dealing with parasite biodiversity of this host, but little has been stu

3. New classification of natural breeding habitats for Neotropical anophelines in the Yanomami Indian Reserve, Amazon Region, Brazil and a new larval sampling methodology
Here we present the first in a series of articles about the ecology of immature stages of anophelines in the Brazilian Yanomami area. We propose a new larval habitat classification and a new larval sampling methodology. We also report some preliminary results illustrating the applicability of the methodology based on data collected in the Brazilian Amazon ra

4. Diversidade de fontes de pólen utilizadas por abelhas Centridini em áreas de Cerrado / Diversity of pollen sources used by Centridini bees in areas of Cerrado. Dissertation in Ecology and Conservation of Natural Resources
As abelhas nativas são os principais responsáveis pela polinização em áreas naturais e nos sistemas agrícolas. Nesse contexto, informações sobre as fontes de recursos alimentares e os padrões de utilização dessas por abelhas simpátricas podem subsidiar ações de conservação e manejo desse grupo. Nesse trabalho apresentamos informações sobre

5. Population ecology of the blue crab Callinectes danae (Crustacea: Portunidae) in a Brazilian tropical estuary
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo descrever a estrutura populacional do siri Callinectes danae Smith, 1869 em um dos estuários mais produtivos do Brasil, o Canal de Santa Cruz. As coletas foram realizadas mensalmente de Janeiro a Dezembro/ 2009 em quatro estações ao longo do canal, duas no estuário superior e duas no estuário inferior. Um total de 23

6. Os primeiros estágios de vida da savelha (Brevoortia pectinata) no estuário da Lagoa dos Patos / Early life stages of Argentine menhaden (Brevoortia pectinata) in the Patos Lagoon estuary
Patterns associated to environmental conditions and to the spatial and temporal distributions of the early stages of Argentine menhaden, B. pectinata, and of its development in the Patos Lagoon estuary were investigated using historical records. Two other complementary experiments were performed: one to evaluate the measurement techniques (traditional and im

7. Composição e sazonalidade de borboletas frugívoras no cerrado, com ênfase na relação fenológica entre Eunica bechina (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae) e sua planta hospedeira Caryocar brasiliense (Caryocaraceae) / Composition and seasonality of fruit-feeding butterflies in the cerrado savanna, with emphasis on the phenological relationship between Eunica bechina (Nymphalidae: Biblidinae) and its host plant Caryocar brasiliense (Caryocaraceae)
In many tropical environments, rainy and dry seasons alternate. The dryer season has decreased leaf availability and the nutritional quality of leaves is also low - thus it is an unfavorable period for herbivorous insects and generates seasonal oscillations in their populations. The cerrado is a neotropical seasonal biome characterized by a hot/rainy and a c

8. Mirmecofilia em Parrahasius polibetes (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) : historia natural, custos, seleção de planta hospedeira e beneficios da co-correncia com hemipteros mirmecofilos / Mymecophily ion Parrhansius polibetes (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) : natural history costs, host-plant selection, and benefits of co-ocurrece with myrmecophilous hemipterans
Ants are one of the most prominent groups of terrestrial organisms in terms of diversity, relative abundance and biomass. Their importance is due primarily to eusocial behavior combined with complex communication systems. Tropical foliage is rich in renewable feeding sources that promote ant foraging. As some of the most important predators on plants, ants s

9. Chemical ecology and reproduction of Neoleucinodes elegantalis Guenée (Lepidoptera : Crambidae) / Ecologia química e reprodução de Neoleucinodes elegantalis Guenée (Lepidoptera : Crambidae)
The reproduction in insects is affected by a wide array of factors that acts directly on the reproductive output, related with offspring quality and quantity: the interaction, by physical, chemical and visual cues, between insects and host plants; the larval growth rate affecting adult size and mating rate, as a mechanism of reproductive sucess. Thus, studie

10. Ecologia das interações entre Udranomia spitzi (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae) e formigas tendo como hospedeira Ouratea spectabilis (Ochnaceae) em um cerrado mineiro / Ecology of interactions between Udranomia spitzi (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae) and ants on Ouratea spectabilis (Ochnaceae) in a savanna from Minas Gerais state, Brazil
Studies in multitrophic systems can serve as tools to investigate the structure and organization of ecological communities. Because it is a biome rich in multitrophic interactions, the Cerrado (tropical savanna) is a good model for the study of insect-plant interactions. Udranomia spitzi (Hesperiidae) is an endemic butterfly from Cerrado. In the immature sta

11. Características da planta hospedeira, ontogênese e comportamento alimentar das larvas de Heliconius erato phyllis (Fabricius, 1775) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)
No contexto da herbivoria, a interação inseto-planta é um sistema dinâmico. As plantas apresentam características que influenciam a preferência e o desempenho dos herbívoros, como por exemplo, a variação da dureza e espessura do limbo foliar, de forma dependente à espécie e à idade da estrutura considerada. Por sua vez, os insetos podem responder

12. Descrição e redescrição morfológica do estágio ninfal e chave taxonômica para ninfas de carrapatos do gênero Amblyomma (Acari:Ixodidae) que ocorrem no Brasil / Morphological description and redescription of nymphal stages and taxonomic key to nymphs of the Amblyomma species (Acari: Ixodidae) that occur in Brazil
Together with the larval stage, the nymphal stage of ticks of the genus Amblyomma are the most aggressive ticks for humans entering in areas inhabited by wild life and some domestic animals. However, due to the inexistence of morphological description of the nymphal stage of many Amblyomma species that occur in Brazil, together with the lack of a taxonomic k
