How much biotic nativeness matters across human demographic groups
Abstract Many central concepts of conservation biology—such as nativeness—are structured by ecological and social factors. However, the social consequences of using these concepts to make conservation decisions remain inadequately understood. Some researchers argue that nativeness, rather than acting as an objective proxy for important ecological ...

Informing spatial conservation prioritization with species’ traits
Abstract New Guinea, the most botanically diverse island on the planet, is the location for one of the boldest conservation initiatives. The Manokwari Declaration aims to achieve 70% conservation designation for the Bird's Head Peninsula. This is 40% higher than the 2022 Global Biodiversity Framework target.

First confirmed breeding of the Brown Hornbill in China, documented through cooperative feeding in Shangyong Protected Area. ABSTRACT The Brown Hornbill (Anorrhinus austeni), a Near Threatened frugivore, reaches the northern edge of its distribution in southern Yunnan, China, yet breeding had not been previously documented with site‐attributed nests in

This research reveals the functional stability of mixed species foraging flocks (MSF) and their foraging height change with different taxonomic differences along the elevational gradient at Knuckles Montane Reserve, Sri Lanka. This offers new insights into how MSFs sustain with the elevational gradients supporting the altitudinal shifting species ...

澜沧江–湄公河是东南亚最大的河流,也是世界上淡水生物多样性最高的三大河流之一。由于特殊的地理位置和国际河流属性,澜沧江–湄公河淡水鱼类的多样性现状仍缺乏系统的认识。本文在近20年调查的基础上,系统整理了澜沧江–湄公河中上游32个支流或亚流域的淡水鱼类物种名录,在此基础上对其种类组成和分布进行了分析,并利用分类学多样性指数对澜沧江–湄公河中上游流域的物种多样性进行了评估。结果表明,澜沧江–湄公河中上游共记录了淡水鱼类745种 ...

Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...

不同栖息地类型对东北大兴安岭红花尔基地区鸟类群落结构与组成的影响
2001~2002年和2004~2005年分别于5~6月,在内蒙古红花尔基地区,应用样方调查法研究了环境因子与鸟类群落结构的关系,结果表明:(1)在草地生境中,鸟类多样性与草的高度和盖度相关性显著,鸟的密度与草的高度和盖度相关性不显著。(2)在樟子松森林生境中,叶层高度多样性指数(FHD)与鸟类多样性指数(BSD)呈正相关(r=0.814 ...

The Asian Songbird Crises negatively affects so‐called master birds, species that are used to increase the song complexity of competitive songbirds. We assessed the trade in a master bird, the crested jayshrike, in Indonesia before and after its legal protection.

This study investigates distribution patterns of Galliforms in the Indian Himalayas, focusing on factors influencing their occurrence, regions of high diversity and endemism, and their overlap with protected areas. Our study highlights the need for assemblage‐level conservation strategies in high Himalaya which primarily relies on snow leopard‐focused ...

研究机场及其周边地区鸟类群落的时空变化规律可为鸟击防范提供科学依据。为了评估鸟击风险等级和制定有针对性的鸟击防范措施,2012年3月~2013年2月,我们采用样线法(共设置8条涵盖净空区树林、水域、农田、村落和灌草丛5种生境类型的样线),对张家界荷花国际机场净空区不同季节的鸟类资源进行了实地调查,并通过比较5种生境中鸟类的物种多样性指数、均匀度指数、物种数和种群密度,分析机场鸟类物种多样性与群落结构时空特征。在荷花机场净空区共记录到92种鸟类,隶属于14目、30科,其中候鸟比例接近50%。春 ...
