Coral reefs are among the most diverse and productive ecosystems on the planet, providing goods and services to millions of people. Yet, they are threatened by a combination of natural and anthropogenic disturbances, whi...

The Olrog's Gull Larus atlanticus breeds only in Argentina and is currently categorized as Vulnerable. Knowledge of the location of colonies and an updated understanding of human activities that may impact their breeding...

ABSTRACT Background: Climate change and widespread environmental degradation have increased the risk of natural hazards in recent decades. Hydrological, meteorological, and climatological disasters have become more frequ...

El Carpinterito Ocráceo (Picumnus nebulosus) se considera cercano a la amenaza en el orden internacional y amenazado en Argentina. En Argentina cuenta con pocos registros en las riberas del río Uruguay, en el extremo n...

ABSTRACT Fisheries is an important activity in the Amazon basin and potentially has a high impact on ichthyofauna. With the aim of achieving sustainability in fisheries of target species, protected areas were established...

Burrowing species can be considered important ecosystem engineers that increase landscape heterogeneity, create subterranean shelters and provide foraging opportunities. We measured and described different aspects of gia...

We report the occurrence of Bungarus walli Wall, 1907, for the first time from Northeast India, based on morphological and meristic examination of an uncollected specimen encountered during a herpetofaunal survey in Raim...

Human–wildlife relations in alpine ecosystems reflect the combined effects of climate change, land-use transitions, and governance capacity. Rather than focusing solely on local conflict dynamics, this study investigat...

Just as for most other tortoise species, the once common Chacotortoise, Chelonoidis chilensis (Testudinidae), is under constant threat across it distribution in Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay. Despite initial qualitativ...

Understanding the knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of the local communities towards the target species before implementing any awareness-based programmes is essential for the success and long-term protection of the s...

A DESTRUIÇÃO DOS recursos naturais da Amazônia continua aumentando, especialmente o desmatamento, apesar de a retórica dos últimos 50 anos ter mudado de conquista e exploração para desenvolvimento sustentável. En...
