Citizen science reveals host-switching in louse flies and keds (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) during a period of anthropogenic change. [PDF]

Med Vet Entomol
A study of louse flies in the United Kingdom, Isle of Man, and Ireland found 212 different interactions between Hippoboscidae and their hosts, of which 70 were previously unrecorded. No louse flies were found on aquatic species of birds. Host‐switching to gulls (Laridae) has occurred during a period in which these species have started relying on ...

High Gene Flow Despite Urbanization: Genetic Diversity and Structure of the Eastern Spotted Dove (<i>Spilopelia chinensis</i>) in Jiangsu Province, China and Implications for Releasing Confiscated Individuals. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study reveals high haplotype diversity but low nucleotide diversity in Eastern Spotted Dove (Spilopelia chinensis) populations across Jiangsu Province, China, based on mitochondrial Cytb and D‐loop sequences from 139 individuals. Despite sampling from 13 sites spanning five geographical regions and varying urbanization levels, genetic analyses ...

Season, Microclimate and Shoreline Disturbance Interactively Shape Bird Functional Diversity. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study examined the seasonal and spatial patterns of bird functional diversity across natural and urbanized coastal sites in Ghana. We found that natural shorelines undergo significant seasonal functional reorganization, whereas urbanized areas maintain stable, generalist‐dominated communities year‐round, losing the temporal dynamics that support ...

EVOLUTION OF CELLULAR ANTIGENS IN COLUMBIDAE [PDF]

Evolution, 1960
Experiments performed in this laboratory have revealed the complex serological interrelationships of the cellular antigens of a number of species of pigeons and doves (Irwin, 1951; 1953). The studies have shown that red blood cells from the respective species share antigens in common and that they also possess antigens to the exclusion of those found ...
