DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring.

A lot of variation and asymmetry in the white patches of male capercaillie tails, but no association with mate choice

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
White patches of male capercaillie tails vary greatly in coverage and symmetry, but the amount of white or the symmetry of the patches was not associated with mate choice. Female choice does not appear to be based on the white patterns on the tail. Highly visible at dawn, the patches may instead facilitate individual identification.

Species traits mediate the abundant‐center patterns in ground‐dwelling mammal and bird species in China

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.

Temporal Niche Partitioning as a Coexistence Mechanism Between China’s Endemic Elliot’s Pheasant (Syrmaticus ellioti) and Its Predator, the Leopard Cat (Prionailurus bengalensis)

Diversity
Understanding predator-prey coexistence mechanisms is essential for conserving endemic species in montane ecosystems. Galliformes serve as critical ecological indicator species, yet their populations are declining globally due to habitat fragmentation ...

Rapid sexing of selected Galliformes by polymerase chain reaction

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2012
Vent sexing of one-day-old chicks in commercial hatcheries has long been common practice and can be highly accurate. However, there are circumstances when this technique is not applicable such as smaller breeds, non-domestic birds, or where is the ...

Capercaillie, Tetrao urogallus, monitoring in Adamello Brenta Natural Park: experimentation of new methodologies

Rivista Italiana di Ornitologia - Research in Ornithology, 2012
In Adamello Brenta Natural Park (Western Trentino - Italy) a long-term study on galliformes started in 2007: its first phase regards Capercaille. The project was based on the experimentation of a methodology useful for a detailed monitoring of the ...

Intensive trapping of blood-fed Anopheles darlingi in Amazonian Peru reveals unexpectedly high proportions of avian blood-meals.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Anopheles darlingi, the main malaria vector in the Neotropics, has been considered to be highly anthropophilic. However, many behavioral aspects of this species remain unknown, such as the range of blood-meal sources. Barrier screens were used to collect
