Attachment Patterns of Human and Avian Influenza Viruses to Trachea and Colon of 26 Bird Species – Support for the Community Concept

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Avian influenza A viruses (AIVs) have a broad host range, but are most intimately associated with waterfowl (Anseriformes) and, in the case of the H13 and H16 subtypes, gulls (Charadriiformes).

Habitat and Thermal Breadth Shape Climate‐Driven Range Shifts in Arctic Birds

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Rapid climate change is reshaping Arctic ecosystems and altering species' breeding distributions. We assessed climate‐driven breeding range shifts of Arctic birds and examined how functional traits, including morphology, habitat breadth, and thermal niche breadth, influence these shifts. Location European and North American Arctic.

Ecological implications and lessons from high pathogenicity avian influenza H5N1 2.3.4.4b in Antarctica

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
HPAI H5N1 was confirmed in 22 South Polar Skuas and one Kelp Gull on Dismal and Horseshoe Islands, Marguerite Bay, Western Antarctic Peninsula in early 2025, with high mortalities consistent with global trends. Rapid antigen tests showed 90% agreement with rRT‐PCR, supporting their utility for early detection in remote environments.

Avian Influenza Virus Prevalence and Subtype Diversity in Wild Birds in Shanghai, China, 2016–2018

Viruses, 2020
From 2016 to 2018, surveillance of influenza A viruses in wild birds was conducted in Shanghai, located at the East Asian–Australian flyway, China. A total of 5112 samples from 51 species of wild birds were collected from three different wetlands.

Chewing Lice From the Wings of Migrating Shorebirds: Diversity, Host Specificity, and Associations With Host Body Condition

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We investigated the diversity, prevalence, and abundance of chewing lice in 1403 individuals representing 20 migratory shorebird species from the families Charadriidae and Scolopacidae, identifying 26 louse species through microscopy and DNA barcoding.

Evolution of supraorbital ossification in Charadriiformes [PDF]

The Auk, 2015
ABSTRACT Phylogenetic analysis of morphological data on 92 species in the order Charadriiformes showed that increased supraorbital ossification (SO) has evolved independently at least 4 times in this clade. Principal component analysis of size-corrected skeletal measures showed that an evolutionary increase in SO was associated with a body plan in ...
