Ant-plant mutualism is an important feature of the Amazon biodiversity. Its coevolutionary trajectories which generated tight compartmented networks are nowadays threatened by habitat alteration. The recent Brazilian demand for energy is leading to the construction of a series of hydroelectric which causes habitat loss and fragmentation. Our goal is to test how dam fragmentation affects the structure of ant-plant mutualistic networks, in particular species density and richness, connectance, modularity, and nestedness. We compared the networks of continuous forest with those from islands and lake edges as well as how networks change among islands varying in area, isolation, shape, and neighborhood. We developed the study in the Biolo...
