Prerequisites for flying snails: external transport potential of aquatic snails by waterbirds [PDF]

open access: yesFreshwater Science, 2012
The widespread distributions of aquatic species often contrast with their limited ability to disperse by their own propulsion among wetlands isolated by land.

Direct evidence for intercontinental dispersal of a snail via a bird

open access: yesEcography, 2023
Long‐distance dispersal (LDD) is a critical process in the distribution of less‐migratory organisms. Migratory birds are considered the principal vector of LDD, especially over extremely long distances such as between continents. However, there has been no evidence of LDD spanning thousands of kilometers, even via birds.

Evidence of mutualistic synzoochory between cryptogams and hummingbirds

open access: yesOikos, 2014
Endozoochory is usually involved in seed dispersal mutualisms, whereas ectozoochory is non-rewarding, and therefore neutral (or even negative) for the animal vector.

The role of waterbirds in the dispersal of freshwater cladocera and bryozoa in southern Africa

open access: yesAfrican Zoology, 2015
It has long been presumed that waterbirds disperse the propagules of aquatic organisms. However, it is only in recent years that this claim has been empirically explored and little is still known about waterbird-mediated dispersal in southern Africa ...
