Svalbard rock ptarmigan: a first glimpse into parasite infections
Polar ResearchNatural ecosystems are under stress due to climate change and impacts are especially prominent at high latitudes. Manifestations of these changes include northward shifts in the distribution of birds, phenological mismatches, improved survival of ...

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 317-355, November 2026.ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

Floor Substrate Preferences of Chickens: A Meta-Analysis
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Environmental enrichment promotes sensory and motor stimulation for species-typical behaviors, which in turn enhance animal well-being. For farmed Galliformes, housing systems often limit enrichment to bedding and litter, that simultaneously act as ...

The draft genome of the Temminck’s tragopan (Tragopan temminckii) with evolutionary implications
BMC Genomics, 2023 Background High-quality genome data of birds play a significant role in the systematic study of their origin and adaptive evolution. The Temminck’s tragopan (Tragopan temminckii) (Galliformes, Phasianidae), a larger pheasant, is one of the most abundant ...

An uncertain future for the endemic Galliformes of the Caucasus [PDF]
Science of The Total Environment, 2019 Impacts of climate change are already evident in ecosystems worldwide. High-latitude and altitude regions are at greatest risk because the effects of climate change are greater in these regions, and species from these areas have limited ability to track their climate envelopes.

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 1099-1111, November 2026.Simple rhamphotheca are externally homogeneous but internally are composed of several corneous layers with varying hardness. Areas under more mechanical stress such as the rostral portion and the tomia are significantly harder than other areas. Abstract Corneous sheaths on the jaws of beaked tetrapods, or rhamphothecae, are classified as simple or ...

, 2018 Galliformes and columbifomes are closely associated with humans and some species have been domesticated for well over 5000 years. Both orders remain diverse, ranging from the common domestic poultry species (e.g., chicken, turkey, and squabs) to the more exotic species found in the wild and in zoological collections.

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 1087-1098, November 2026.Juvenile scolopacid shorebirds possess well‐developed osteological correlates of tactile bill‐tip organs, indicating sensory systems for remote‐touch foraging are present from early life. Ontogenetic changes in bill‐tip morphology suggest ecological specialisation and interspecific variation develop later, after fledging in these highly precocial ...
