Collateral damage from agricultural netting to open‐country bird populations in Thailand

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Nets are used across a wide variety of food production landscapes to control avian pests typically resulting in the death of entangled birds. Based on 1312 road‐survey transects, we documented 735 individuals of at least 45 bird species caught in nets and parallel cords, including many species not regarded as pests. We suggest imposing a ban on netting.

Steppe Eagle Population Structure Genetic Study: is There Hope for the Endangered Species?

Пернатые хищники и их охрана, 2023

A survey of the uncinate bone and other poorly known ossicles associated with the lacrimal/ectethmoid complex of the avian skull

The Anatomical Record, Volume 305, Issue 9, Page 2312-2330, September 2022., 2022
Abstract In several taxa of Neornithes (crown group birds), the lacrimal/ectethmoid complex exhibits small bones, the comparative osteology of which is poorly studied. Some of these ossicles—which are commonly known as uncinate bones (ossa uncinata or ossa lacrimopalatina)—were already described two centuries ago, but knowledge of their distribution ...

The last continuous grasslands on Earth: Identification and conservation importance

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Most of the world’s temperate grasslands are fragmented today. However, some have managed to withstand anthropogenic forces of the 21st century and remain intact. They provide essential ecosystem services, serve as critical repositories for grassland biodiversity, and are essential for continental migration pathways.

The bird remains from WF16, an early Neolithic settlement in southern Jordan: Assemblage composition, chronology and spatial distribution

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 1030-1045, November/December 2021., 2021
Abstract Excavations at the early Neolithic settlement of WF16 in Faynan, southern Jordan, 11.84–10.24 ka BP, recovered 17,700 bird bones, of which 7808 could be identified to at least family level. Sixty‐three different bird taxa are present from 18 families, representing a mix of resident and migrant birds, based on present‐day ecology.
