COARSE- AND FINE-SCALE PATTERNS OF DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT SELECTION PLACES AN AMAZONIAN FLOODPLAIN CURASSOW IN DOUBLE JEOPARDY

Coarse- and fine-scale patterns of distribution and habitat selection places an Amazonian floodplain curassow in double jeopardy

Patterns of habitat selection are influenced by local productivity, resource availability, and predation risk.Species have taken millions of years to hone the macro- and micro-habitats they occupy, but these may now overlap with contemporary human threats within natural species ranges.Wattled Curassow (Crax globulosa), an endemic galliform species

Many dwarf galaxies have disproportionately rich globular cluster (GC) systems for their luminosities.Moreover, the GCs equi-jec 6 tend to be preferentially associated with the most metal-poor stellar populations in their parent galaxies, making them attractive tracers of the halos of dwarf (and larger) alphaville clothing galaxies.In this contribu
