The tropical house gecko is an exotic and invasive lizard that has a wide distribution in the New World. Throughout its area of occurrence, the species is predated by several native predators, such as spiders, lizards, snakes, birds, and mammals. The guira cuckoo is a widely distributed bird in South America, usually found in man-impacted regions. The species feeds mainly on arthropods, small vertebrates, and reptiles, such as liz ...

This work discusses how to implement wetland restoration/creation from the viewpoint that wetland aquatic plants are divided into four life forms: emergent, submergent, floating and floating leaf plants. Caohai Lake and Baiyun Lake were selected to discuss the difference of the species richness changes during the creation/restoration process. Baiyun Lake and eight surrounding wetlands have been selected to discuss how the species ...

This research was aimed at assessing plants
diversity, under the influence of siltation and solid waste effluents along the
River Benue bank, Shinko area in Yola North Local Government Area of Adamawa
State, Nigeria. Three plots of 20 m × 20 m were randomly established at the solid waste, silt
solid waste, silted and no-silt; no-waste areas. A quadrat of 1 m × 1 m was laid at random to determine the population of

In
Laos, the cultivation of fast growing trees as eucalypts has been promoted due
to a rapid decline in natural forest cover. However, this expansion of fast
growing trees might not end in a win-win situation for both humans and the
environment. This paper examines the social and ecological potentials of Eucalyptus
(Eucalyptus ...

In this work, galactomannans and xyloglucans were isolated from the seed
endosperm and cotyledon of Brazilian non-conventional sources, respectively.
Extraction yields, monosaccharide ratios, macromolecular parameters and molar
mass distributions were determined and compared to commercial guar gum and
Locust Bean Gum (LBG). The extraction yield in relation to seed mass ranged
from 7.0% to 40.63%, with xyloglucan yields being highe ...
