Avaliação do Estado de Conservação da Tartaruga Marinha Chelonia mydas (Linnaeus, 1758) no Brasil

Antônio de Pádua Almeida,
Armando José Barsante Santos,
João Carlos Alciatti Thomé
et al.

Abstract: Apresentação e justificativa de categorização O estado de conservação da tartaruga marinha Chelonia mydas (Linnaeus, 1758) (Cheloniidae) foi avaliado de acordo com os critérios da IUCN (2001), com base nos dados disponíveis até 2009. Síntese do processo de avaliação das tartarugas marinhas pode ser encontrada em Peres et al., neste número. A categoria proposta para o táxon é “Vulnerável (VU)” segundo o critério A2ab, ou seja, ameaçado, de acordo com informações sobre redução da população. A espécie Chelonia my… Show more

“…Despite the large number of forest species recorded in the study area (19 of the 30 species recorded; Beca et al, 2017), only two remained restricted to forest fragments: the brown howler monkey ( Alouatta guariba ) and the big‐eared opossum ( Didelphis aurita ); and four have significantly higher frequencies in the forest fragments: the spotted paca ( Cuniculus paca ), the azara's agouti ( Dazyprocta azarae ), the tayra ( Eira barbara ) and the collared peccary ( Pecari tajacu ). This dependence on forest fragments may be a reflection of the highly frugivorous diet, which restricts the foraging of these species to areas with higher food productivity (Alves‐Costa et al, 2004; Emmons & Feer, 1997; Pérez, 1992; Rodrigues et al, 2013). In fact, according to a study carried out in Australia, ecological mechanisms such as diet constraints are the key determinants for the creation of mammal assemblages in tropical climates, which are mostly characterized by food preferences (Bino et al, 2013).…”

“…In Brazil, robust populations of this species are found mainly in the Amazon rainforest (Oliveira et al 2013;. However, ocelots are present in other Brazilian biomes such as the Pantanal, an area considered of extreme importance as a natural refuge for several species considered endangered in the country ; and the Cerrado, the most threatened biome by agriculture expansion in Brazil and the most biodiverse savannah of the world .…”

“…Other studies conducted in humanmodified landscapes have found an increase in the average relative abundance of ocelots related to an increase of sugarcane crops, but only where large tracts of native forest remain . Thus, the species presents itself as a good model for studying the effects of land use changes, as it is considered a species with a wide geographic distribution and with relatively high demographic densities, compared to other small cats (Oliveira et al 2013). In this chapter we evaluated the spatial variation in ocelot population density in relation to land use and cover covariates, testing the hypothesis that open agriculture fields in the study area can help supporting the ocelot population.…”
