Neotropical bromeliads as food sources for birds: a systematic review and perspectives on the management of ecological interactions

Joedison Rocha

Summary: The loss of interactions and ecosystem functions due to species decline and extinction in the Anthropocene is a significant concern. Bromeliads play an important role in providing food sources for at least 162 bird species in the Neotropics, thus enhancing local bird diversity. Restoring the abundance of bromeliads can be a relevant conservation tool for birds and contribute to the maintenance of species and interaction diversity.

The Amazon Epiphyte Network: A First Glimpse Into Continental-Scale Patterns of Amazonian Vascular Epiphyte Assemblages

Adriano Quaresma et al.

Summary: Epiphytes in Amazonia are understudied and their distributional patterns and conservation priorities are assessed in this study. The study compiled a large database of epiphyte plots across Amazonia and found that the vascular epiphyte assemblages (VEA) exhibit spatial and ecological variations based on major Amazonian habitat types. Furthermore, the study identifies sampling gaps in the highly threatened southern Amazonian deforestation belt.

Bird Conservation in Brazil: Challenges and practical solutions for a key megadiverse country

Pedro Ferreira Develey

Summary: Brazil has the highest diversity of bird species in the Americas, but also the highest number of threatened bird species. Conservation measures such as the establishment of protected areas, initiatives on private lands, and direct management of certain species have shown positive outcomes. The active involvement of society, as well as the use of new web tools for birdwatching, are crucial for bird conservation efforts in Brazil.
