Altitudinal migration behavior patterns of birds on the eastern slope of Mt. Gongga, China
Many bird species in montane regions exhibit altitudinal migration behavior; however, altitudinal migration of birds is still understudied, especially in Asia. Mt. Gongga (7556 m) is the highest peak of the Hengduan Mountains in Southwest China.

Avian Haemosporidian blood parasite infections at a migration hotspot in Eilat, Israel [PDF]
Haemosporidian blood parasites are frequent amongst passerines. Though they often do not cause detectable consequences to host health, however, their presence or absence and also their prevalence across host populations may potentially carry ...
