Estimating dynamic risk factors for pathogen transmission using community-level bird census data at the wildlife/domestic interface [PDF]
The ecology of host species is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of pathogen transmission and spread in complex multi-host systems. In this article, we use detailed observations of the host community to develop and apply a new approach to mapping ...

A peculiar anseriform (Aves: Anseriformes) from the Miocene of Gargano (Italy)
Abstract A new large representative of the Anseriformes, Garganornis ballmanni n. gen. et n. sp., from the Miocene of Gargano, Italy, is described from the distal end of a left tibiotarsus. G. ballmanni displays morphological features that are characteristic of the Anseriformes, but differs from all extant and fossil Anseriformes, as well as ...
