First record of the rare snake Cercophis auratus (Schlegel, 1837) (Serpentes: C...
Bezerra, Castiele Holanda; Guilhon, Bruno Ferreira; Ramos, Antônio Rafael Lima; Nojosa, Diva Maria BorgesCercophis auratus is a rare snake with known disjunct distribution between coastal Atlantic Forest to eastern Amazonia and Guiana Shield. Here we provide a new record of this species from a relictual highland of rainforest inside the xeric Caatinga ecoregion. This new record fill a gap of 1700 kilometers between southern (Barra do Choça – BA) and northern (Augusto Corrêa – PA) in the distribution of C. auratus ...
Dimorfismo sexual na “cobra-cipó” Oxybelis aeneus(Serpentes, Colubridae) no est...
Mesquita, Paulo Cesar Mattos Dourado de; Nojosa, Diva Maria Borges; Bezerra, Castiele HolandaSexual dimorphism in the brown vine-snake Oxybelis aeneus from the State of Ceara, Brazil. Several different pressures determine the reproductive success among males and females, and that is the reason why morphological differences between the sexes are expected to be found in any given species. Oxybelis aeneus is a tiny and slender arboreal snake that is widely distributed from the United States to southeaster...

Almeida, Lucas Araújo de; Moura, Rafaela Almeida de; Oliveira, John Allyson Andrade; Bezerra, Castiele Holanda; Braga, Roberta da RochaO Núcleo Regional de Ofiologia da Universidade Federal do Ceará (NUROF-UFC) realiza diversos projetos de extensão, sendo o mais antigo o projeto direcionado às visitas das comunidades estudantis, na qual são realizadas palestras de divulgação científica e educação ambiental em herpetologia (estudo dos anfíbios e répteis) para estudantes de ensino fundamental, médio e superior. As atividades são divididas em uma...

Moura, Rafaela Almeida de; Almeida, Lucas Araújo de; Oliveira, John Allyson Andrade; Bezerra, Castiele Holanda; Nojosa, Diva Maria BorgesO Brasil possui uma das mais ricas faunas de répteis do mundo. As serpentes formam o grupo com maior diversidade, sendo 386 espécies, das quais apenas as serpentes das famílias Viperidae (30spp) e Elapidae (32spp) são peçonhentas. Culturalmente, costumam ser rejeitadas pelo homem, incentivados geralmente por mitos e lendas geralmente atrelados à religião, a crendices e a falta de informações, que culminam na mo...

Bezerra, Castiele Holanda; Pinheiro, Luan Tavares; Melo, Gabriela Cavalcante De; Zanchi-Silva, Djan; Queiroz, Murilo De Souza [UNESP]Made available in DSpace on 2018-12-11T17:26:54Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-01-01; The decay of similarity between biological communities with increasing geographical distance is a well-established pattern in ecology, but there are more complex factors acting on host population connections that influence this association for parasite communities, such as parasites' colonization abilit...
Helmintos parasitas do lagarto exótico hemidactylus mabouia (moreau de jonnès, ...
Bezerra, Castiele HolandaBiological communities can vary spatially according to a relationship of decay of similarity with increasing distance between them. Although parasites represent good models for studies about richness and structure of biological communities, studies about ecological dynamics of parasite populations and communities are still scarce. Our objective in this work was to report the helminth communities associated to d...
