13. Tropical terrestrial model ecosystems for evaluation of soil fauna and leaf litter quality effects on litter consumption, soil microbial biomass and plant growth.
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o modelo de ecossistema terrestre (TME) como ferramenta para o estudo dos efeitos da qualidade da liteira, de invertebrados do solo e da fertilização mineral na decomposição da liteira e no crescimento das plantas em condições controladas. Foram coletados quarenta e oito cilindros de solo intacto (Latossolo Amarelo

14. 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

15. Efeitos da sazonalidade pluviomÃtrica sobre a diversidade e a composiÃÃo de uma assemblÃia de formigas (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) em uma Ãrea de caatinga / Effects of seasonal rainfall on diversity and composition of an assemblage of ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in a caatinga
Presence of water is a determinant factor for food sources and/or nest sites availability, and is therefore potentially important for terrestrial invertebrate communities, particularly for those with fixed/perennial nests and that live in environments marked by strong rainfall seasonality. The aim of this work was to obtain informations about the seasonal pa

16. Pequenos mamíferos terrestres e a regeneração da Mata Atlântica: influência da estrutura do habitat e da disponibilidade de alimento na recuperação da fauna / Terrestrial small mammals and Atlantic forest regeneration: effect of habitat structure and food availability in the wildlife recovery
Através da amostragem de 28 sítios em diferentes estádios de regeneração em uma área de Mata Atlântica contínua, procuramos nesta dissertação contribuir para o entendimento dos mecanismos relacionados às mudanças faunísticas observadas durante o processo de regeneração em florestas tropicais, e, assim, melhor compreender o valor das florestas

17. Diversidade e bioprospecção de actinobactérias isoladas de manguezais. / Diversity and bioprospecting of actinobacteria from mangrors.
Mangroves are coastal ecosystems which occur in the areas of transition between marine and terrestrial environments throughout the tropical and subtropical regions, suffering direct tide influence. The diverse microbial communities are important to the nutrient cycling occurrence and consequently to the maintenance of these environments fauna and flora biodi

18. Terrestrial arthropods as biological indicators of anthropogenic disturbance / Artropodes como indicadores biologicos de pertubação antropica
In this study, the responses of terrestrial arthropods to different types of anthropogenic disturbance were examined, aiming to select and test ecological indicators. Ten groups of terrestrial arthropods were selected and sampled in an Atlantic Forest reserve with two sites with contrasting histories of disturbance, one with history of selective logging (pre

19. 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

20. Numerical simulation of the transport of the properties during the wadding of compartments of reservoirs / Simulação numérica do transporte das propriedades durante o enchimento de compartimentos de reservatórios
The wadding of hidroelectric reservoirs provokes ambient impacts, intervening with the ecosystems and the ways of life of the involved populations, because during this process the terrestrial biomass is decomposed launching substances that stay concentrated in the volumes of the different compartments of the reservoir. In these conditions, some regions of th

21. Os vertebrados da Bacia da ParaÃba: CretÃceo Superior-Paleoceno, Nordeste do Brasil
The aim pourpose of this research is the study of the vertebrate fauna of ParaÃba Basin, using taxonomic, paleoecologic and paleoenvironment aspects with emphasis in the tooth analysis of reptiles and bone fishes (Enchodus), for the diagnostic characteristics that allow the taxonomic classification. It was indentified and revised taxonomic of 36 taxon, from

22. The ANUROFAUNA Of FORMATION CRATO, EOCRETÃCEO Of the BASIN Of the ARARIPE / A ANUROFAUNA DA FORMAÃÃO CRATO, EOCRETÃCEO DA BACIA DO ARARIPE,
The Crato Formation, Araripe Basin, has yielded one of the most important Early Cretaceous fossil assemblages world-wide, being specially famous for the abundance, taxonomic diversity, and exceptional preservation of its fossils. Its beds contain remains of a continental flora and fauna that have been interpreted to represent a lacustrine environment. The ai

23. Estrutura de comunidades de peixes de igarapés de terra firme na Amazônia Central: composição, distribuição e características tróficas
Stream fish assemblages are known to be strongly influenced by channel structure, microhabitat diversity and other habitat characteristics. Nevertheless, the information about these relationships in tropical systems remains scarce, especially for Amazonian streams. We studied nine streamlets located at the Biological Dynamics Forest Fragments Project (BDFFP)

24. Use of food resources and diet electivities of an anuran terrestrial assemblage from the dunes of the midlle São Francisco River, Bahia, Brazil / Uso de recursos alimentares e eletividades na dieta de uma assembléia de anuros terrícolas das dunas do médio Rio São Francisco, Bahia
The discovery of an extremely abundant anuran terrestrial assemblage, that is syntopic to a peculiar fauna of lizards, snakes, and worm snakes, in a locality at the sand dune fields of the Middle São Francisco River (Bahia state, Brazil) motivated: (1) the study of food use and electivities of local anurans, (2) investigations about evidences of adaptation
