Birthplace: Brazil

I have a Bachelor's and Licentiate degree in Biological Sciences, along with a PhD in Plant Biology from São Paulo State University (UNESP), Botucatu, including a research exchange at Doñana Biological Station/University of Seville, Spain. I'm currently a postdoctoral researcher at UNESP. My research focuses on Ecology and Conservation Biology, especially Plant-Animal Interactions, Ecological Networks, Plant Ecology, and Restoration Ecology.

Abstract
Plant-floral visitor relationships can be understood as consumer-resource (C-R) interactions once both trophic levels explore and simultaneously serve as resources for their interacting species. Although primarily applied in the study of agonistic interspecific relationships, predictive models used to understand C-R interactions have recently been expanded to mutualisms between plants and…

Abstract
Nectar is the main floral reward produced by angiosperms to pollinators, and can be consumed by both vertebrates and invertebrates. The temporal variation in nectar availability can affect the population dynamics and phenology of pollinators, which in turn are able to respond even to small variations in nectar production. Species with generalist pollination systems, nectar is the main res…
