No. of bitstreams: 1 2016 - Lorena de Oliveira Tabosa.pdf: 1511505 bytes, checksum: c4a8cc1e3bf15b12aca8fd957c712fee (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-09-29 / CNPq / Studies on reproductive patterns, temporal and seasonal activity and use of space by animals can contribute to the knowledge about the coexistence of similar morphologically and phylogenetically related species in a particular region. The aims of this study wasanalyze the reproductive biology and coexistence of two nectarivorous species, Anoura caudifer and A. geoffroyi, on Santu?rio de Vida Silvestre da Serra da Conc?rdia in Valenca, RJ. Samplings were conducted from Novembrer 2010 to February 2015, near a cave in which the species sheltered and in nearby trails. Anoura caudifer presented reproductive restricted monoestrous seasonal pattern, with pregnant in higher rainfall and temperature months of. The frequency of pregnant, lactating were not uniform, with peaks in a few months. The sex ratio was 0.5 female to 1 male. Anoura geoffroyi presented pattern reproductive poli?strico bimodal, with evident peak in the rainy months and possible second peak in the middle of the year, probably becausefemales migrated to another refuge. Frequencies of pregnant and lactating have not been uniform. The sex ratio was 1.6 to 1 female male. Although active males of both species were found in all months of the year, were porssible observe a pattern in response to female reproductive pattern. Differences in male and female physiology in response to high or low food availability may be the reason why only females are influenced by the increase in annual rainfall. Anoura caudifer and A. geoffroyi showed similar patterns in activity time, with peaks in the first two hours of the night, characteristic for nectarivorous and frugivorous bats. The frequency of A. caudifer capture proved to be similar in the cave trail and in other sampling sites, regardless of the presence of A. geoffroyi, which occurred almost entirely, on the trail of the cave. Probably this species employ different strategies to minimize a possible competition, as the differentiation in use of space in the Santu?rio da Conc?rdia. / Estudos sobre os padr?es reprodutivos, temporais e sazonais da atividade de animais, assim como o uso do espa?o, podem contribuir para o conhecimento sobre a coexist?ncia de esp?cies morfologicamente semelhantes e filogeneticamente relacionadas em uma determinada regi?o. Este trabalho teve objetivo de analisar aspectos da biologia reprodutiva e da coexist?ncia de duas esp?cies nectar?voras, Anoura caudifer e A. geoffroyi, no Santu?rio de Vida Silvestre da Serra da Conc?rdia, em Valen?a, RJ. Foram realizadas amostragens de novembro de 2010 a fevereiro de 2015, pr?ximo a uma gruta na quais essas esp?cies se abrigavam e em trilhas existentes no local. Anoura caudifer apresentou padr?o reprodutivo mono?strico sazonal restrito, com ocorr?ncia de gr?vidas nos meses de maior pluviosidade e temperatura. A frequ?ncia de gr?vidas, lactantes n?o foi uniforme, havendo picos em dois meses. A propor??o sexual foi de 0,5 f?mea para 1 macho. Anoura geoffroyi apresentou padr?o reprodutivo poli?strico bimodal, com pico evidente nos meses chuvosos e segundo poss?vel pico no meio do ano, pelo fato das f?meas migrarem para outro ref?gio. As frequ?ncias de gr?vidas e lactantes n?o foram uniformes. A propor??o sexual foi de 1,6 f?mea para 1 macho. Apesar de serem encontrados machos ativos sexualmente, de ambas as esp?cies, em todos os meses do ano, pode-se observar um padr?o em resposta ao padr?o reprodutivo das f?meas. Diferen?as na fisiologia de machos e f?meas em resposta ? alta ou baixa disponibilidade de alimento pode ser motivo pelo qual somente as f?meas s?o influenciadas pelo aumento da pluviosidade anual. Anoura caudifer e A. geoffroyi apresentaram padr?es de atividade hor?ria semelhantes, com picos nas duas primeiras horas da noite, caracter?sticos de morcegos nectar?voros e frug?voros. A frequ?ncia de captura de A. caudifer mostrou-se similar na trilha da gruta e nos demais locais amostrados, independente da presen?a de A. geoffroyi, que ocorreu quase em sua totalidade, na trilha da gruta. Provavelmente as esp?cies empregam diferentes estrat?gias para minimizar uma poss?vel competi??o tr?fica, como a diferencia??o no uso do espa?o no Santu?rio da Conc?rdia.

The requirements of true frogs on breeding sites were monitored at 19 locations in the Hradec Králové Region and the Central Bohemia Region and Vysočina Region. Specific sites were selected according to the high variability. Breeding sites are mutually different representation of true frogs, water volume, depth, water and surrounding vegetation. The data of oviposition three different species of czech frogs - moor frog (Rana arvalis), agile frog (Rana dalmatina) and common frog (Rana temporaria) - were collected in the spring months, from the end of March until the end of April, from 2012 to 2015. During this period were collected data from 927 egg clutches of these species. The data were obtained by non-invasive way - measuring of inividual clutches directly on the reproductive site. At each breeding site was also recorded the required parameters of the breeding pond and the surrounding environment (presence of true frogs, the water volume and depth of the pond, the presence and density of aquatic vegetation, surrounding vegetation, air and water temperature, pH value of water, etc.). The results presented in this work confirm that the three species of true frogs have, in some parameters, different standards to select of breeding sites. This clarification of species- specific claims is also...
