    Social-ecological filters drive the functional diversity of beetles in homegardens of campesinos and migrants in the southern Andes

    Homegardens are coupled social-ecological systems that act as biodiversity reservoirs while contributing to local food sovereignty. These systems are characterized by their structural complexity, while involvi...

    Treeline ecotones shape the distribution of avian species richness and functional diversity in south temperate mountains

    Mountains produce distinct environmental gradients that may constrain or facilitate both the presence of avian species and/or specific combinations of functional traits. We addressed species richness and funct...

    Interspecific networks of cavity-nesting vertebrates reveal a critical role of broadleaf trees in endangered Araucaria mixed forests of South America

    Cavity-nesting animals and their nest trees are linked in interspecific facilitation networks known as nest webs, which play key roles in forest function but vary across biomes and with human perturbation. We ...

    The conservation value of tree decay processes as a key driver structuring tree cavity nest webs in South American temperate rainforests

    South American temperate rainforests, a global biodiversity hotspot, have been reduced to nearly 30% of their original extent and most remaining stands are being degraded. Cavity-nesting vertebrate communities...
