The hindlimb myology of Milvago chimango (Polyborinae, Falconidae) [PDF]
Journal of Morphology, 2013 ABSTRACTWe describe the hindlimb myology of Milvago chimango. This member of the Falconidae: Polyborinae is a generalist and opportunist that can jump and run down prey on the ground, unlike Falconinae that hunt birds in flight and kill them by striking with its talons.

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

A Derived Morphology of the Quadrate May Support a Previously Unrecognized Major Higher-Level Clade of Neoavian Birds. [PDF]
J MorpholThe avian quadrate plays a critical role in cranial kinesis, but few comparative studies exist of its morphological variation across higher‐level taxa. In this study, the occurrence of a markedly concave articular facet of the condylus medialis is surveyed across neornithine birds.

Rapid Global Deforestation Leaves Forest-Dependent Raptors With Half of Their Suitable Habitat Remaining. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolWe analyzed high‐resolution global data on forest change between 2001 and 2023 within the ranges of 369 forest‐dependent raptor species. On average, these species have lost 10% of forest within their ranges since 2001. Seventy‐seven species had already lost at least 15% of additional forest cover within their ranges in the latter half of the 20th ...
