Population densities and home range sizes of the Chestnut Wood-quail

open access: yesJournal of Field Ornithology, 2006
ABSTRACT We present the first report of population density and home range estimates for the Chestnut Wood-quail (Odontophorus hyperythrus), an endemic and nearly threatened species of the Colombian Andes. Density estimates were obtained using playbacks and spot mapping and point transect methods.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.
