About This Project
The harvestmen (Opiliones) are highly endemic in Atlantic Forest and are a good models for ecological and biogeographical studies. However, very little is known about harvestman ecology. This project aims to inventory the harvestmen fauna inan area of Atlantic Forest in Sergipe state, Brazil, a place to which the harvestmen fauna is unknown. I also pretend to identify the historical and environments factors that influence the distribution of these animals.
