No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2022-01-01; Idea Wild; Villum Fonden; Many ecosystems have been modified by humans, creating novel habitats that include human-provided resources. Gardens adjacent to native habitats may affect plant–pollinator interactions by altering the determinants of interactions and species specialization. Here, we characteri...

Aim: To investigate the role of alien plants in mutualistic plant-hummingbird networks, assessing the importance of species traits, floral abundance and insularity on alien plant integration. Location: Mainland and insular Americas. Methods: We used species-level network indices to assess the role of alien plants in 21 quantitative plant-hummingbird networks where alien plants occur. We then evaluated whether p...
Ecological communities that experience stable climate conditions have been speculated to preserve more specialized interspecific associations and have higher proportions of smaller ranged species (SRS). Thus, areas with disproportionally large numbers of SRS are expected to coincide geographically with a high degree of community-level ecological specialization, but this suggestion remains poorly supported with ...
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico; Although hummingbirds are considered an important group of pollinators, few studies about their ecology are available for some ecosystems. The Cerrado biome harbors one of the world richest vascular flora, but at a given community, the proportion of hummingbird pollinated flower is relatively low. Maybe driven by this trend, hummingbird visits are f...
