Abstract
The Atlantic Forest biome has suffered defaunation processes resulting in the loss of ecological functions that compromised their ecosystem services. This study aims to describe the trophic ecology, functional diversity and occurrence of terrestrial mammals in preserved areas (N=5) located at the largest forest continuum of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. The study includes the isotopic analysis of fecal samples and hair carnivorous mammals, analysis of the functional diversity of the sampled communities; camera trapping for estimating abundance, density, co-occurrence, and analysis of trophic networks. The integration of different researchers and institutions will allow the exercise of interdisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity and transversality for the conservation of the Atlantic Forest biome. Also, this project is linked to other three projects that will be conducted concurrently - "Ecological consequences of defaunation in the Atlantic rainforest", coordinated by Dr. Mauro Galetti, "Use, habitat selection and jaguar movement in the Atlantic Forest and Caatinga biome: a comparative analysis", coordinate by Dr. Ronaldo G. Morato, "Genetic diversity of felines (P. concolor, L. pardalis, L. tigrinus e P. yagouaroundi) and effect of the presence of mesopredator (L. pardalis) density and genetic diversity of the species of small-sized felines", coordinated by Dr. Pedro M. Galetti Jr. - will result in one of the largest conservation efforts in a biodiversity hotspot. Finally, the results shall contribute to the goals of the National Action Plans for the Conservation of Endangered Species of Felines, coordinated by CENAP/ICMBio. (AU)
