First molecular identification of a goussia parasite from a new world invasive ...
Jowers, Michael J.; Xavier, Raquel; Lasso-Alcalá, Oscar M.; Quintero-T, Elena; Nunes, Jorge L. S.; Giarrizzo, Tommaso; Machado, Fabiola S.; Gómez, JesúsPurposeIntroduced or invasive fish are susceptible to new parasites but can simultaneously carry infectious parasites from their native range towards new hosts. Screening these parasites is key to address the health of fish populations and spread of diseases. MethodsIn this study, we sequenced a Coccidia parasite, for the first time from the blenny Omobranchus sewalli, introduced in the northern coast of Brazil...
Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research
Carvalho, Raquel L.; Resende, Angelica F.; Barlow, Jos; França, Filipe M.; Moura, Mario R.; Maciel, Rafaella; Alves-Martins, Fernanda; Shutt, JackBiodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain underst...
Disentangling beach litter pollution patterns to provide better guidelines for ...
Brabo, Lucio; Andrades, Ryan; Franceschini, Simone; Soares, Marcelo Oliveira; Russo, Tommaso; Giarrizzo, TommasoBeach litter represents a worldwide problem impacting both terrestrial and aquatic environments. In the present study, we assessed beach litter pollution in a prominent touristic site in Brazil, the Jericoacoara National Park. In particular, we applied a delta-generalized additive modeling (GAM) approach in order to investigate pollution hotspots and to provide better guidelines for coastal environmental manage...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-11-01; Abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) is responsible for the entanglement of several marine species. Based on a search of digital media (i.e., Google and YouTubeBR), we assessed the negative impacts of ghost nets—a type of ALDFG—on Brazilian marine biodiversity. We found that ghos...

Isaac, Victoria Judith; Almeida, Morgana C.; Giarrizzo, Tommaso; Deus, Claudia P.; Vale, Rozeilza; Klein, Gilmar; Begossi, AlpinaO presente estudo analisou e comparou o consumo diário de alimentos de origem animal em onze comunidades dos rios do Baixo Amazonas, Trombetas, e Purus, representando três diferentes sistemas de manejo e níveis de conservação na Amazônia brasileira. Todos os alimentos de origem animal foram pesados em pelo menos 10% das famílias das comunidades estudadas, durante uma semana em cada período do ciclo hidrológico,...

Redescription and geographical distribution of the endangered fish ossubtus xin...
Andrade, Marcelo C.; Sousa, Leandro M.; Ota, Rafaela Priscila; Jegú, Michel; Giarrizzo, TommasoThe monotypic species Ossubtus xinguense was originally described based on scarce material putatively divided into juveniles and adults. Ossubtus xinguense has a restricted distribution and was previously known only from a few rapids downstream of the city of Altamira, in the Volta Grande stretch of the Middle Xingu River. Until recently, the species was rare in museums because its habitat (large rapids) is dif...
