Gap‐crossing movements predict species occupancy in Amazonian forest fragments (2009, background): “…bird communities in small forest fragments are typically dominated by ‘transient’ medium-sized frugivores/omnivores and edge-specialists endowed with high flight-capacity that can persist therein by using multiple patches in order to meet their daily metabolic requirements (Lees and Peres 2008b).”
Amphibians over the edge: silent extinction risk of Data Deficient species (2014, background): “…risk is commonplace in the literature for better-known vertebrate groups, including birds (e.g. Owens & Bennett, 2000; Collen et al., 2006; Lees & Peres, 2008; Lee & Jetz, 2011), mammals (e.g. Collen et al., 2006; Cardillo et al., 2008; Davidson et al., 2009; Fritz et al., 2009),…”
Frequent bird movements across a highly fragmented landscape: the role of species traits and forest matrix (2013, background): “…with various studies from the Amazonian basin, showing that in particular, understorey, small-sized and disturbance-tolerant species with small home ranges and low niche requirements are able to persist in fragmented forests (Stouffer & Bierregaard, 1995; Lees & Peres, 2008; Lees & Peres, 2009).”
Trait‐related responses to habitat fragmentation in Amazonian bats (2015, background): “…by, for instance, vegetation structure, successional stage, spatial extent) and landscape characteristics (e.g. forest cover, fragment connectivity) may act as an environmental filter that determines species’ persistence via functional traits (Lees & Peres 2008; Quesnelle, Lindsay & Fahrig 2014).”
Global patterns and predictors of bird species responses to forest fragmentation: Implications for ecosystem function and conservation (2014, background): “…do not tend to hold year-round territories, prefer more open habitats, and are relatively insensitive to fragmentation, often thriving in small habitat patches, agricultural areas, and the intervening landscape between forest fragments (Donoso et al., 2004; Lees and Peres, 2008; Sekercioglu, 2012).”
Predicting local extinctions of Amazonian vertebrates in forest islands created by a mega dam (2015, background): “Additionally, species life-history attributes can be excellent predictors of vertebrate species susceptibility to extinction in tropical forest remnants (Lees and Peres, 2008; Meyer et al., 2008; Urquiza-Haas et al., 2009; Thornton et al., 2011a; Benchimol and Peres, 2014).”
