Mitochondrial Genome Analysis of Philippine Eagles (<i>Pithecophaga jefferyi</i> Ogilvie-Grant 1896) From the Greater Mindanao Faunal Region. [PDF]
Mitogenome sequencing is a promising alternative for the genetic studies of animals. In this work, we examined the genetic diversity of the critically endangered and endemic Philippine eagles and their evolutionary relationship to other birds of prey.

Season, Microclimate and Shoreline Disturbance Interactively Shape Bird Functional Diversity. [PDF]
This study examined the seasonal and spatial patterns of bird functional diversity across natural and urbanized coastal sites in Ghana. We found that natural shorelines undergo significant seasonal functional reorganization, whereas urbanized areas maintain stable, generalist‐dominated communities year‐round, losing the temporal dynamics that support ...

Differences in Dietary Composition and Interspecific Competition Among Large Carnivores on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. [PDF]
This study elucidated the mechanisms underlying regional coexistence among the snow leopard (Panthera uncia), wolf (Canis lupus), and brown bear (Ursus arctos) through the analysis of their trophic niches. The findings provide a scientific foundation for further investigation into the mechanisms that maintain carnivore communities in high‐altitude ...

Mitogenomic and Metabarcoding Resources for the Study and Conservation of Keystone Neotropical Raptors [PDF]
We characterized complete mitochondrial genomes for nine keystone Neotropical raptors, including four threatened and five near‐threatened species, providing essential resources for phylogenetic and conservation studies. We also developed metabarcoding primers, enabling non‐invasive monitoring of Neotropical raptors via environmental DNA.
