Integrative taxonomy clarifies the evolution of a cryptic primate clade
Elst, Tobias van; Sgarlata, Gabriele M.; Schüßler, Dominik; Tiley, George P.; Poelstra, Jelmer W.; Scheumann, Marina; Blanco, Marina B.Global biodiversity is under accelerating threats, and species are succumbing to extinction before being described. Madagascar’s biota represents an extreme example of this scenario, with the added complication that much of its endemic biodiversity is cryptic. Here we illustrate best practices for clarifying cryptic diversification processes by presenting an integrative framework that leverages multiple lines o...
A pastorícia, transformações e resistência, pelo olhar das mulheres
Aleixo-Pais, Isa; Castro, José; Castro, João Paulo; Frazão-Moreira, Amélia; Castro, MarinaO pastoreio extensivo, particularmente de pequenos ruminantes, é uma atividade histórica no Parque Natural de Montesinho (PNM) no nordeste de Portugal. Na continuidade e herança da organização económica camponesa, esta atividade toma contornos de resistência, adequando-se a uma economia agrária marcada, entre outros, pelas diretivas europeias da política agrícola comum, pelo subsídio dependência e pelas oscilaç...

Aleixo-Pais, Isa; Borges, Filipa; Sesay, Nazie; Songe, Mustapha; Cassama, Mamadu; Camara, Iaia T.; Ramos, Catarina; Barca, Benjamin; Turay, Brima S.Food distribution and abundance can affect intra- and inter-dietary variation in non-human primates, influencing feeding ecology and altering behaviour. Natural and/or human-induced actions can influence the dynamics between primates and the environment, with associated impacts on socio-ecology and demography. This relationship in anthropogenic landscapes, however, is poorly understood. Here, we use DNA metabar...
