    Microplastics are emerging pollutants that have raised great concerns to the fish community and are present in most freshwater aquatic ecosystems. These pollutants can cause physical damage and accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to intestinal obstruction. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of microplastics in the gastrointestinal content of the fish community in the Jaguariaíva River, considered an important tributary of the Itararé River, upper Paraná River basin, Brazil. To this end, we tested whether (i) microplastic ingestion varies among fish from different trophic guilds (detritivores, omnivores, herbivores, insectivores, and piscivores) and (ii) whether ingestion is associated with habitat use (demersal, benthopelagic, and pelagic). The fishes were collected from March 2013 to December 2014 at seven points along the Jaguariaíva River and had their gastrointestinal tracts removed and analyzed in the laboratory. Microplastics were analyzed with a micro Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. In general, fibers and fragments were found in 13 fish species, with their composition being polyvinyl alcohol and polydimethylsiloxane. Furthermore, the consumption of these microplastics was not associated with trophic groups or the types of habitats used by the species analyzed. The presence of microplastics in fish provides insights into the current pollution in the Jaguariaíva River. These findings reinforce the need for mitigation measures to reduce plastic pollution and minimize its impact on aquatic biodiversity.
  • Grooming in Urban Black-horned Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus nigritus cucullatus): Up or Down the Hierarchy?

    International Journal of Primatology, 2026
    Grooming in primates is often structured by dominance rank and exchanged for rank-related benefits under conditions of high feeding competition. However, evidence suggests that such patterns may weaken in environments with abundant and nonmonopolizable resources. We investigated grooming patterns among adult female Sapajus nigritus cucullatus living in an urban forest fragment characterized by high access to anthropogenic food sources. Using grooming interactions recorded from one group, we examined whether grooming was structured by dominance rank, rank differences, or social proximity. Grooming occurred predominantly down the hierarchy and was more frequent between females that spent more time in proximity. Grooming rates were not explained by the absolute rank of groomers or groomees, nor by rank differences between interactants. These findings suggest that, under conditions of reduced feeding competition and shallow dominance hierarchies, grooming exchanges may be weakly structured by rank and better explained by proximity-based mechanisms. Because our data derive from a single group in an urban ecological context, our conclusions are necessarily limited in scope and should be interpreted as context-dependent rather than representative of the species as a whole. Comparative studies across multiple groups and ecological conditions should assess these patterns in multiple conditions.

    Primates, 2026
    Juggling, defined as the repeated and rhythmic throwing and catching of an object, is a rare and complex form of object manipulation among non-human animals. While object play has been described in several taxa, true juggling behavior, intentional, successive aerial manipulation of the same object, has only been formally documented in a few species such as otters, dolphins, corvids, and, more recently, in gibbons and macaques. In this study, we report the first known case of juggling behavior in a wild free-ranging Platyrrhini, a juvenile black-horned capuchin monkey ( Sapajus nigritus cucullatus ) inhabiting an urban forest fragment in southern Brazil, with access to human foods. The event was recorded opportunistically during a behavioral study of object manipulations by capuchins. The juvenile, positioned alone on the ground in a green open area, picked up a coconut and performed a sequence of seven successive throws and recoveries, each executed with precision, rhythm, and apparent intentionality. This observation expands the known taxonomic and ecological range of juggling-like behaviors and underscores the cognitive and motor flexibility of Sapajus species. It also raises questions about the influence of urban environments on behavioral innovation in wild primates, where exotic objects are present and predation and competition may be more relaxed, freeing up time for innovations. We propose that this object manipulation represents an innovative play behavior in a juvenile capuchin, which, beyond serving as a ludic activity, may function as a means of cognitive engagement, motor practice, and possibly cultural transmission.

    Scientific Data, 2025
    Roadkill is widely recognized as one of the primary negative effects of roads on many wildlife species and also has socioeconomic impacts when they result in accidents. A comprehensive dataset of roadkill locations is essential to evaluate the factors contributing to roadkill risk and to enhance our comprehension of its impact on wildlife populations and socioeconomic dimensions. We undertook a compilation of roadkill records, encompassing both published and unpublished data gathered from road surveys or opportunistic sources. GLOBAL ROADKILL DATA includes 208,570 roadkill records of terrestrial vertebrates from 54 countries across six continents, encompassing data collected between 1971 and 2024. This dataset serves to minimise the collection of redundant data and acts as a valuable resource for local and macro scale analysis regarding rates of roadkill, road- and landscape-related features associated with risk of roadkill, vulnerability of species to road traffic, and populations at risk of local extinction. The objective of this dataset is to promote scientific progress in infrastructure ecology and terrestrial vertebrate conservation while limiting the socio-economic costs.

  • Does size matter? Exploring the influence of body size on predator–prey relationships, hunting mode and prey characteristics in Neotropical fishes

    Ecology of Freshwater Fish, 2025
    The development of diverse capture mechanisms during foraging allows predators to select their preys and succeed in their capture, with the least energy expenditure possible. In this context, we seek to understand how prey selection mechanisms exhibited by freshwater fish piscivores relate to their foraging mode. The study was carried out in the floodplain of the Upper Paraná River, where fish were captured from March 2006 to June 2013. The fish were identified and measured, their stomachs were removed, and the stomach contents were analysed. Quantile regressions were used to evaluate possible effects and relationships between the sizes of piscivores and their prey. A significant positive effect on the predator–prey size relationship was observed, indicating an increased size of consumed prey with increased size of piscivore, mainly for Acestrorhynchus lacustris, Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus, Hoplias intermedius, Hoplias mbigua, Hoplias sp. 2, Pseudoplatystoma corruscans, Rhaphiodon vulpinus and Salminus brasiliensis. Ambush predators were more likely to consume slow‐moderate and fast prey, while pursue predators only consume fast prey. Several mechanisms can influence a piscivore's foraging behaviour, and body size is an important factor for both the piscivore and its prey. From the prey's point of view, the way they swim and the complexity of the habitat are important characteristics to ensure their survival. For piscivores, the foraging mode will influence the type of prey consumed, depending on the prey's swimming mode.
  • Stone Tool Use by Black-Horned Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus nigritus cucullatus) in an Urban Park in Londrina, Brazil

    American Journal of Primatology, 2025
    Tool use to crack open palm nuts has been observed extensively in some capuchin monkey species. However, for southern black‐horned capuchin monkeys (Sapajus nigritus cucullatus), there is only one published record of stone tool use from the 1990s, from an urban park in Londrina, Brazil. In the present study, we returned to this urban park to systematically investigate the hammer‐and‐anvil sites used to crack nuts by this capuchin monkey population. We analyzed the fruit and shell remnants resulting from hammering to test the following hypotheses: (1) hammers at tool‐use sites are actively chosen for size and/or weight, (2) tool use sites that are closer to a tree of the processed plant species are more frequently used, and (3) there is no seasonal effect modulating hammer‐and‐anvil use for processing nuts. We located and identified 205 tool‐use sites through active search within the park, and we measured and weighed the tools involved in hammering activity. We compared hammer weight and size to that of the comparable material available in the environment and found that hammer size and weight differed significantly from that of the raw materials found in the environment, suggesting active choice of the hammers. We identified three plant species for which nuts were processed through tool use: Syagrus romanzoffiana, Acrocomia aculeata and Terminalia catappa. Through measuring the distance between each tool‐use site and the nearest tree of the plant species processed there, we found that closer proximity between the tool‐use site and the nearest target tree (Syagrus and Acrocomia) increased cracking frequency. We returned to each site three times during the study year to determine if new tool use activity had occurred, and our data indicate habitual use of tools to crack open nuts throughout the year, with no large differences between seasons.

    Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2025
    Tapirus terrestris is the largest land mammal in the Atlantic Forest and is vulnerable to extinction due to population declines in many parts of the biome. A population of the species occurs in the northern region of the State of Paraná, Brazil where forest fragmentation is extensive. We used generalized linear models (GLMs) with a binomial error structure, considering all potential predictors, to access information of forest habitat available to the species in 36 fragments, between 2015 and 2016. Camera traps were used to estimate the density of T. terrestris between November 2019 and March 2020, and spatial capture and recapture models to analyze the data. The results suggest that the lowland tapir is more likely to occur in fragments >100 hectares and in closely connected fragments. Density estimates ranged from 0.09 to 0.17 individuals/km2, lower than those found in most other parts of the Atlantic Forest, indicating that the study landscape provides a sub-optimal habitat for the species.

    Small-bodied characoids represent a significant portion of Brazil’s freshwater fish fauna, yet they remain understudied. In reservoirs, these species are highly abundant, colonise the marginal zone and are important in the aquatic food webs. In the lower Paranapanema River, the neighbouring reservoirs Rosana and Taquaruçu differ in their environmental conditions, but both host native and non-native characoids. This study describes the diet, feeding ecology and interactions of between co-existing native and non-native small-bodied characoids in both reservoirs, as well as their trophic responses to seasonal climatic variations (dry vs. wet season). Samples were collected quarterly between September 2018 and September 2020, with trawls, sieves and cast nets collecting fish in marginal zones and aquatic macrophyte beds. The stomach contents of 416 individuals from seven native and non-native characoids were analysed, with their prey classified into several food categories and resources. In the Rosana Reservoir, both native and non-native characoids were strongly reliant on allochthonous resources and their diet composition showed similar shifts between the wet and dry season. Conversely, in the Taquaruçu Reservoir, the characoids were more reliant on autochthonous resources and showed weak dietary shifts between seasons. Niche breadth and trophic overlap indices indicated diet specialisation and segregation in the characoids of the Rosana Reservoir, while, in Taquaruçu, they overlapped significantly, especially in the dry season. These results reveal considerable differences in the trophic interactions between native and non-native characoids in two Neotropical reservoirs, suggesting high context dependency in the ecological implications of introducing non-native species of these small-bodied fishes.
  • ECOLOGY AND BEHAVIOR OF COATIS Nasua nasua (LINNAEUS, 1766) IN AN URBAN PARK IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL

    Oecologia Australis, 2024
    The Atlantic Forest has important environmental heterogeneity and biodiversity, thus it is recognized as one of the most critical global ecological regions. Coatis Nasua nasua are found in urban forest fragments and urbanized areas and use available green spaces and human-provided resources and so are a good model to study the influence of anthropogenic environments. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of urbanization and forest fragmentation on the ecology and behavior of coatis (Nasua nasua) in Arthur Thomas Municipal Park, Londrina, Paraná, Brazil. Ecology and behavior include population size, daily activity patterns and habitat use obtained through active search and direct visualization of individuals and their tracks. Population density was estimated at 36.1 individuals per km2 and is greater than estimates in natural areas, probably due to anthropogenic food sources and the absence of top predators. Coati activity was greatest between 08:00 and 13:00 h when they tend to be terrestrial. Forested habitat was the most used, followed by secondary vegetation, and coatis used different the areas of the park in different ways during the dry and rainy periods, with a wide use of anthropogenic areas in all periods, closely related to the contribution of food of anthropic origin.
