Determining population trends and conservation status of the common quail (Coturnix coturnix) in Western Europe [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper we review the conservation status and population trends of the common quail (Coturnix coturnix) from 1900 to the present. Data are sometimes contradictory with regard to the status of this species as it has some features that make it ...

Effectiveness of territorial protection categories in conserving an endemic island bird during population fluctuation

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Static boundaries of protected areas failed to capture the Canary Islands stonechat's shifting distribution patterns. Abstract Protected areas represent cornerstones of biodiversity conservation on oceanic islands, yet their effectiveness for endemic species remains poorly evaluated. We assessed how various territorial protection categories conserve an

Exposure to the Oestrogenic Pollutant 17α‐Ethinyl Estradiol (EE2) Does Not Alter the Behaviour of a Coastal Marine Fish, Cristiceps australis

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 4, Page 295-304, April 2026.
Environmental contamination with the synthetic estrogen 17α‐ethinyl estradiol (EE2) is widespread in coastal ecosystems, yet behavioural effects in marine fishes remain poorly understood. We exposed southern crested weedfish (Cristiceps australis) to low and high EE2 concentrations for 14 days and assessed boldness and anxiety using a refuge‐use assay.

Pomacea insularus (Gastropoda : Pilidae) : its control under the integrated pest management (IPM) concept [PDF]

, 2000
Three control measures of Pomace a insularus as parts of IPM (Integrated Pest Management) components were studied; firstly the development of plant molluscicides, secondly the use of fish as its biological control and thirdly its utilisation as quail (

Context‐Dependent Effects of Amino Acid Supplementation on Nestling Growth and Baseline Innate Immune Function

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We experimentally supplemented great tit nestlings with methionine, leucine, or tap water to test how essential amino acids influence growth and immune function in forest and suburban habitats. Supplementation increased mass gain in smaller forest nestlings and enhanced lysis activity with methionine in suburban populations.

Using step width to compare locomotor biomechanics between extinct, non-avian theropod dinosaurs and modern obligate bipeds [PDF]

, 2017
How extinct, non-avian theropod dinosaurs locomoted is a subject of considerable interest, as is the manner in which it evolved on the line leading to birds. Fossil footprints provide the most direct evidence for answering these questions. In this study,

Oxidative costs of migration: infections as an added burden

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
There is increasing evidence that over‐production of reactive species (RS) constitutes a significant physiological cost for migrating birds. The current view entails that RS during migration originate primarily from increased metabolic activity associated with prolonged flights and refueling.
