MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL: A data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occur...
Grilo, Clara; Afonso, Beatriz C.; Afonso, Filipe; Alexandre, Marta; Aliácar, Sara; Almeida, Ana; Alonso, Ivan Prego; Álvares, Francisco; Alves, PauloMammals are threatened worldwide, with 26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mam mals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems func tionality and resilience, and theref...

Puma Concolor (Carnivora, Felidae) : ocupação e período de atividade no limite ...
Linck, PalomaA compreensão da ecologia temporal e espacial das espécies subsidia o delineamento de ações de manejo. Grandes felídeos, como Puma concolor (puma), são considerados predadores de topo e apresentam papel importante na regulação de populações de outras espécies da fauna; assim, sua conservação resulta na preservação de várias espécies no mesmo ecossistema. No Brasil, a espécie é considerada Vulnerável (VU), já no...
Mesocarnivores interactions in fragmented landscapes
Linck, PalomaIn Iberian Peninsula, large carnivores suffered a significant decline in their populations. Mesocarnivores are therefore one of the main groups of terrestrial predators present in Iberian ecosystems. Mesocarnivore community are extremely complex and presents multidimensional interactions that act on distinct ecological axes. Understanding the factors that determine the organisation of this community is fundamen...
