They are an opportunistic plunderer species preying on insects and small mammals. Data on hunting tactics of this specie are scarce in the literature. Here, the general and hunting behaviors of the species are described in an urban environment, a university campus, in the city of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais state, Brazil. An adult male of A. cunicularia had its behavior studied during 14 days, in July 2005, totaling 20 hours of systematic observations using the instantaneous focal-animal method. The observations were done using 10x50 binoculars, between 06:00 and 09:00 and after 16:00, from a minimal distance of 25 m. We identified and described five behavioral categories: self-maintenance, locomotion, hunting, non-agonistic social and alert. No difference was found between behaviors displayed during morning and afternoon periods. Four hunting strategies displayed by A. cunicularia were identified (hunting in soil, air hunting, perch to soil hunting and hover flight hunting) but no difference between their frequencies was found. These behaviors were observed only after 18:00. These non-significant patterns suggest that the oportunistic hunting behavior of the birds of prey (“sit-and-wait”) and the active search hunting patterns are alternated according to opportunity, identification and capture of the prey and the place of capture.","PeriodicalId":445542,"journal":{"name":"Lundiana: International Journal of Biodiversity","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134241887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When reintroduction is used for the preservation of a species, the survival ratio of reintroduced animals needs to be high. The determination of animal personality helps choosing the right animals, therefore increasing their survival chances and also increasing the reintroduction success. Three captive, male maned wolves were chosen for personality evaluation. Two personality tests were carried out and compared: The boldness score test estimated the level of boldness from a series of behaviors divided into bold, shy and fear categories; and questionnaires showed how zookeepers perceived the personality of the same three animals, while they were working with them. According to the boldness score calculation, Maned Wolf Two (MW2) was the boldest, followed, in order, by MW1 and MW3. According to the questionnaires, MW1 was the boldest, followed by MW2 and by MW3. Reasons for these contradictory results and variables that should be considered in both tests for increasing their accuracy are discussed. Used together, these tests showed to be helpful tools for choosing among individuals to be released in the wild. \u0000Keywords: Maned wolf, personality tests, boldness score, questionnaires.","PeriodicalId":445542,"journal":{"name":"Lundiana: International Journal of Biodiversity","volume":"192 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116783056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Standl in two different successional stages in a tropical dry forest in north of Minas Gerais State, Brazil. The study was conducted at the end of the wet season, when the leaves exhibit an accumulation of lost biomass. In two different areas under distinct status of regeneration, 15 plants were selected and 30 leaves were randomly sampled to determine leaf damage. A higher percentage of leaf damage was observed in trees in the latesuccession stage area than in the early-succession stage area (19.48 ± 2.32 versus 10.77 ± 0.83; F1,30=38.9, p<0,001). These results corroborate others studies performed in tropical dry forest of America and with T. ochracea in the Brazilian cerrado domain. Studies performed in these same areas show that succession leads to an increase of plant-species diversity, increasing the complexity of the environmental structure. Higher plantspecies richness could lead to an increase in richness and abundance of herbivorous insects that, in turn, could increase the herbivory rates at late-succession areas, since chewer insects contribute with 75% or more of all leaf area consumed annually. \u0000Keywords: ipê-amarelo, dry forest, herbivory, succession.","PeriodicalId":445542,"journal":{"name":"Lundiana: International Journal of Biodiversity","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122379072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We searched for these molecular tools by screening the annals of malacological events in Brazil and Latin America within the last 15 years.

An estimate of the scientific production on the basis of the analysis of these curricula is also provided. The main techniques and molecular markers employed were indicated. The data showed that these studies were concentrated in institutions in the South and Southeast regions and emphasized gastropods of medical importance. However, molecular studies that examined other gastropods, cephalopods and bivalves were also performed. No research study was found in the Central-West region of the country. The growth of this field of study in the country is expected, considering the molecular studies that have been performed and the great diversity of the molluscan fauna in Brazil. Future molecular studies on some taxa in the country, which have not yet been studied, should be contemplated. The increase in the use of sequencing techniques will help to bridge the gaps in our taxonomic and phylogenetic knowledge, contributing to the studies on biodiversity and conservation. \u0000Keywords: Molecular biology, malacology, snail, Brazil, DNA.","PeriodicalId":445542,"journal":{"name":"Lundiana: International Journal of Biodiversity","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117120990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
