Bionomics studies of Mansonia mosquitoes inhabiting the peat swamp forest.
The present study was conducted in the years 2000-2002 to determine the bionomics of Mansonia mosquitoes, vectors of nocturnally subperiodic Brugia malayi, inhabiting the peat swamp forest, "Phru Toh Daeng", Narathiwat Province, Thailand. Fifty-four species of mosquitoes belonging to 12 genera were added, for the first time, to the list of animal fauna in the peat swamp forest. Mansonia mosquit...
متن کاملfossil: Palaeoecological and palaeogeographical analysis tools
The fossil software package is a collection of analytical tools to synthetically analyse ecological and geographical data sets. The software is designed to be used with the R Statistical Language and is under an Open Source license, making it free to download, use or modify. The package includes functions for estimating species richness, shared species/beta diversity, species area curves and ge...
متن کاملEcological aspects of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in the gallery forest of Brasília National Park, Brazil, with an emphasis on potential vectors of yellow fever.
INTRODUCTION We analyzed the vertical and monthly distributions of culicid species in the gallery forest of Brasília National Park, with an emphasis on the potential vectors of yellow fever (YF). METHODS Between September 2010 and August 2011, mosquitoes were captured on the ground and in the canopy of the forest for five consecutive days per month, from nine to 15 hours. The mosquitoes were ...
متن کاملPriors Engaged in Long-Latency Responses to Mechanical Perturbations Suggest a Rapid Update in State Estimation
In every motor task, our brain must handle external forces acting on the body. For example, riding a bike on cobblestones or skating on irregular surface requires us to appropriately respond to external perturbations. In these situations, motor predictions cannot help anticipate the motion of the body induced by external factors, and direct use of delayed sensory feedback will tend to generate ...
متن کاملAnomalous, extreme weather disrupts obligate seed dispersal mutualism: snow in a subtropical forest ecosystem.
Ongoing global climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and magnitude of extreme weather events, impacting population dynamics and community structure. There is, however, a critical lack of case studies considering how climatic perturbations affect biotic interactions. Here, we document how an obligate seed dispersal mutualism was disrupted by a temporally anomalous and meteorologi...
