Birdsong characteristics are related to fragment size in a neotropical forest
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.12.020 0003-3472/© 2018 The Authors. Published by Elsevie license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) The oscine passerines, an avian suborder that comprises almost half of all bird species worldwide, learn their song primarily through cultural transmission. As the world's forests become increasingly fragmented and the population sizes of many fo...
متن کاملDiversity and Distribution of Plant Communities Related to Forest Fragment Size, Shape, Age, and Structure
Fuelling, Rachel R. M.S., Purdue University, May 2014. Diversity and Distribution of Plant Communities Related to Forest Fragment Size, Shape, Age, and Structure. Major Professor: Jordan M. Marshall. In the Midwest region of the United States, forested areas have been removed to make way for agriculture and development. In the southern Midwestern states, including Indiana, cultivated and pastur...
متن کاملFeeding resource partitioning between two understorey insectivorous birds in a fragment of Neotropical cloud forest.
The food habits and niche overlap based on diet composition and prey size of two species of understorey insectivorous birds were investigated in an area of montane rain forest in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. A total of 43 birds were captured: 33 individuals of Conopophaga lineata (Conopophagidae) with 13 recaptures, and 10 individuals of Myiothlypis leucoblephara (Parulidae) ...
متن کاملStrong density- and diversity-related effects help to maintain tree species diversity in a neotropical forest.
Intraspecific density-dependent effects in the Barro Colorado Island (Panama) study area are far stronger, and involve far more species, than previously had been suspected. Significant effects on recruitment, many extremely strong, are seen for 67 out of the 84 most common species in the plot, including the 10 most common. Significant effects on the intrinsic rate of increase are seen in 54 of ...
متن کاملSeed size, seedling morphology, and response to deep shade and damage in neotropical rain forest trees.
To investigate the existence of coordinated sets of seedling traits adapted to contrasting establishment conditions, we examined evolutionary convergence in seedling traits for 299 French Guianan woody plant species and the stress response in a shadehouse of species representing seed size gradients within five major cotyledon morphology types. The French Guianan woody plant community has larger...
