Boletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi. Ciências Naturais, 2007 Estudos sobre a osteologia craniana dos Columbiformes são escassos na literatura. No que se refere a G. montana, não foram encontrados trabalhos desta natureza, sendo esta, provavelmente, a primeira descrição detalhada da anatomia craniana da espécie ...

Cranial osteology of Geotrygon montana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Columbiformes: Columbidae) compared to other New World Columbiformes [PDF]
Boletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi. Ciências Naturais, 2007 Studies on cranial osteology of Columbidae are not frequent in the literature. This is the first description of the jaw apparatus of G. montana and we had as objectives: to compare its jaw apparatus with other New World Columbidae and thus broaden our ...

Habitat use of conifer forests for Interior Band-tailed Pigeons is mediated by precipitation
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2022 Although managing habitats in the context of climate change is increasingly important in Western North America, management recommendations are often lacking at fine scales relevant for management.

, 2020 FAMILY COLUMBIDAE ILLIGER, 1811 Remarks: The columbid bones in the Vava'u assemblages can be separated into three broad size classes: small taxa (Ptilinopus and Gallicolumba), medium-sized taxa [Ducula pacifica (Gmelin, 1789) and Di.placopedetes] and large taxa (Caloenas sp. and a large species of Ducula).

Oikos, EarlyView.Seed dispersal by frugivores is a central process linking plant reproduction, animal foraging, population persistence, and ecosystem resilience. Currently, the spatial template sustaining these interactions is rapidly reconfigured by habitat loss and fragmentation promoted by human activity.

The link between colorfulness and extinction risk across the world's passerine birds
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Many of the functional traits that mediate extinction risk across the range of biodiversity relate indirectly to a species’ ability to persist in a changing world, yet certain traits such as coloration directly affect human interactions with wildlife.

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.
