This study aimed to estimate the abundance and the spatial-temporal distribution of Caiman
latirostris, characterizing the age structure of the population and the microenvironmental …

Paulo Braga Mascarenhas Júnior et al. 978 individuals were sighted in one night. This
probably underestimates the total population in the reservoir, considering that the caimans' …

We surveyed populations of the broad-snouted caiman, Caiman latirostris, throughout the
São Francisco River basin, from Três Marias reservoir, State of Minas Gerais, to the river …

Information on the home range and movement patterns of Neotropical crocodilians is scarce
for most species, despite being essential for developing management and conservation …

The broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) is a South American crocodilian with a wide
geographical distribution. Water bodies originally occupied by the species have suffered …

Jaú National Park is a large rain forest reserve that contains small populations of four
caiman species. We sampled crocodilian populations during 30 surveys over a period of …

This study examines how two species of diurnal lizards (Tropidurus semitaeniatus and T.
hispidus, Tropiduridae) use spatial, trophic and temporal resources in the Conservation Unit …

The nest was found in a forest with tall canopy trees, which provide more shading. It was 86
m away from the water body and 11 m above the reservoir's water level, while the average …

Movement patterns of caimans were studied over a 16-year period in two areas of the
Brazilian Pantanal, one dominated by intermittent rivers and another, adjacent region of …

Night count surveys are one of the most used methods to study distribution and population
parameters in crocodilians. However, there are some methodological constraints that …
