Ecological and evolutionary consequences of living in a defaunated world (2013, background): “Such global assessments (Ceballos and Ehrlich, 2002), as well as many local studies (Galetti et al., 2009; Peres, 2001), agree in showing the differential vulnerability of species, depending on body size, whereby large bodied species and/or taxonomic groups of large bodied species (Dirzo, 2001)…”
Bamboo overabundance alters forest structure and dynamics in the Atlantic Forest hotspot (2012, background): “These results agree with Griscom and Ashton (2006) findings and partially support their bamboo crushing hypothesis formulated for other Guadua-dominated forests.”
Conservation issues in the Brazilian Atlantic forest (2009, background): “, 2009) and large-scale (Galetti et al., 2009) perspectives; and forest restoration projects are becoming more successful as a result of scientists’ growing expertise in this field (Rodrigues et al.”
Emptying the Forest: Hunting and the Extirpation of Wildlife from Tropical Nature Reserves (2011, background): “…2000), nature reserves have suffered recent widespread declines in vertebrate populations, and the situation appears similar in other tropical areas with relatively high-density human populations, such as Madagascar (Dunham et al. 2008, Golden 2009), West and Central Africa (Fa and Brown Box 1.”
Biodiversity, species interactions and ecological networks in a fragmented world (2012, background): “poaching that, taken together, drive dramatic local changes in frugivore abundance across fragments (see e.g. Almeida-Neto et al., 2008; Galetti et al., 2009).”
Prospects for biodiversity conservation in the Atlantic Forest: Lessons from aging human-modified landscapes (2010, background): “, 2006), hunting (Cullen et al., 2000; Galetti, 2001; Galetti et al., 2009), and exploitation of other non-timber forest resources (Galetti and Aleixo, 1998).”
High mammal species turnover in forest patches immersed in biofuel plantations (2017, background): “This forest type holds 31 species of medium and large size terrestrial mammal species (Cullen et al., 2004; Galetti et al., 2009).”
Range-wide declines of a key Neotropical ecosystem architect, the Near Threatened white-lipped peccary Tayassu pecari (2011, background): “White-lipped peccaries use habitats non-randomly, underlining their need for a variety of ecosystem types and their associated fruiting species (Keuroghlian & Eaton, 2008a; Lee & Peres, 2008; Galetti et al., 2009; Keuroghlian & Eaton, 2009).”
