Ecological niches reflect not only adaptation to local circumstances but also the tendency of
related lineages to share environmental tolerances. As a result, information on phylogenetic …

Climate change could significantly affect vectorborne disease in humans. Temperature,
precipitation, humidity, and other climatic factors are known to affect the reproduction …

This book provides a first synthetic view of an emerging area of ecology and biogeography,
linking individual-and population-level processes to geographic distributions and …

Aim Many attempts to predict the potential range of species rely on environmental niche (or
'bioclimate envelope') modelling, yet the effects of using different niche‐based …

Modeling approaches that relate known occurrences of species to landscape features to
discover ecological properties and predict geographic occurrences have seen extensive …

Os triatomíneos são insetos hematófagos de grande importância médica, pois são os
responsáveis pela transmissão do Trypanosoma cruzi, o agente etiológico da doença de …

Although Brazil was declared free from Chagas disease transmission by the domestic vector
Triatoma infestans, human acute cases are still being registered based on transmission by …

Geographic and ecological distributions of three Lutzomyia sand flies that are cutaneous
leishmaniasis vectors in South America were analysed using ecological niche modelling …

The conservation of poorly known species is difficult because of incomplete knowledge on
their biology and distribution. We studied the contribution of two ecological niche modelling …

Chagas disease is one of the most important yet neglected parasitic diseases in Mexico and
is transmitted by Triatominae. Nineteen of the 31 Mexican triatomine species have been …
