Overwintering and Resident Birds in Qatar: Explorations With DNA Barcoding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We obtained DNA barcodes for 115 birds (34 species, 12 orders) in Qatar, a country with no previous barcode sequence data for wild birds. We provide insights on locally breeding species and overwintering migrants. ABSTRACT Genetic research is unevenly distributed across the globe, with most research done in temperate zones.

Anatomical description of neornithine stomach with implications on neornithine stomach morphology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 245, Issue 5, Page 787-796, November 2024.
The representatives of the four neornithine stomach morphotypes proposed in this study. Abstract Neornithines, the most diversified extant tetrapods, have been a classic example for understanding form–function relationships, particularly in the context of the interaction between dietary ecology and neornithine phenotypic evolution.

Testing Mini-FLOTAC for the Monitorization of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Birds Kept at Four Iberian Zoological Institutions

open access: yesJournal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens
Birds kept in zoological institutions are highly exposed to gastrointestinal (GI) parasitism caused by coccidia and nematodes. The current research aimed to characterize the avian GI parasitic fauna in several zoological collections in Portugal and Spain.
