The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Scientific Reports, 2023 Habitat loss is one of the main threats to species survival and, in the case of parasites, it is their hosts that provide their habitat. Therefore, extinction even at local scale of host taxa also implies the extinction of their parasites in a process ...

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.New World vultures are the only avian clade proposed to lack a syrinx and have been described as non‐vocal. Using dissection, diceCT, and histology, we demonstrate that cathartid vultures have novel syringeal features that form a syrinx and vocal characterization reveals that they produce more complex vocalizations than previously reported.

Additional file 1 of Avian haemosporidian parasites of accipitriform raptors
, 2022 Additional file 1: Fig. S1. An intramuscular parasite cyst (arrow) detected in a hematoxylin-eosin stained section of the heart of a western marsh harrier Circus aeruginosus co-infected with Leucocytozoon sp. lCIAE03 and P. circumflexum pTURDUS1. The morphology resembles tissue cysts of parasites belonging to the family Sarcocystidae (Conoidasida ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is widely used to recover ecosystem function in modified estuaries, yet uncertainty remains about how quickly wildlife communities respond. Early trajectories are central to evaluating restoration success, guiding adaptive management, and building ecosystem resilience in engineered landscapes. Marsh birds
