Metacommunity combine local ecology (eg, screening environmental and biotic interactions) and regional (eg, distribution and heterogeneity) process to understand the patterns of species abundance, occurrence, composition and diversity across space and time scales.
Thus, it has great potential to generalize and synthesize our understanding of many ecological problems. Here, we provide an overview of how the metacommunity perspective can provide useful insights for conservation biology, which aims to understand and reduce the impact of anthropogenic drivers decrease population size, the probability of extinction rise and threaten biodiversity.
We review four metacommunity general filtering-process environment, biotic interactions, deployment, and ecological drift-and discuss how the key drivers of anthropogenic (eg, habitat loss and fragmentation, and normative species) can alter these processes. We further explain how a floral pattern in metacommunities (abundance, occupancy, and diversity) map to the issue at the heart of conservation biology, and describe cases in which the benefits of conservation biology by taking metacommunity scale-explicit perspective. We conclude with some advanced ways to include metacommunity perspective to the ideas of ecosystem functions and services, as well as the approach to habitat management, conservation, and restoration.
Helminthological studies can contribute with valuable information about the host and conservation biology. Here, we provide new data on the worm infecting lizards Norops fuscoauratus, examine one of the factors that are considered most important in parasite ecology: the size of the host. We analyzed 25 specimens of N. fuscoauratus of three marshy plateau in the Brazilian semi-arid. Eight taxa belonging Nematode worms, Trematoda, and Acanthocephala found.
Physaloptera sp. showed a higher prevalence (40%), with the average intensity of infection of 3.3 ± 1.46 (1-16) and the average abundance of 1.32 ± 0.65 (0-16). fuscoauratus Norops represent four new host record for worms Cyrtosomum sp., Pharyngodon travassosi, Strongyloides sp. and Centrorhynchus sp. There was no association of the host body size (P = 0.79) and mass (P = 0.50) with a wealth of parasites. In addition, this study contributes to the knowledge of the fauna of parasites N. fuscoauratus and Neotropical region.
Biodiversity conservation through the lens of metacommunity ecology.
Rapid and accurate identification of species for ecological studies and monitoring using CRISPR-based Sherlock.
One of the most fundamental aspects of research and ecological monitoring is accurate species identification, but cryptic speciation and fault-based observer may confound the identification of phenotypes. The CRISPR-Cas toolkit has facilitated remarkable progress in many disciplines, but the field of ecology and conservation biology has not fully embrace this powerful technology.
Recently developed CRISPR-Cas13a Platform Sherlock (High Specific enzymatic sensitivity Reporter unlocking) enables highly accurate taxonomic identification and has all the characteristics necessary for the transition to the discipline of ecology and the environment. Here we perform a series of “proof of principle” experiment to characterize the ability of Sherlock to be accurate, sensitive, and quickly distinguish three interesting fish species co-occur in the management of the San Francisco Estuary are easily misidentified in the field.

We improved ease of deployment SHERLOCK field by combining previously demonstrated rapid isothermal amplification and CRISPR genetic identification with minimally invasive and extracting free DNA collection protocols, as well as options for lateral flow detection instruments freely. This approach opens the door to redefine how, where, and by whom the genetic identification occurs in the future.
