A longitudinal study of avian pox in a small passerine, the Dunnock (Prunella modularis)

Ibis, EarlyView.
Long‐term, longitudinal studies of disease in wild bird populations are rare. Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1099-1113, September 2026.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Spatial Distribution and Host‐Specific Patterns of Avian Haemosporidian Infections in a Semi‐Arid Region of Northeastern Iran

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
A survey of 263 birds across 10 species in Semnan Province, Iran, revealed a 22.1% prevalence of avian haemosporidian infections, dominated by Haemoproteus spp. Pigeons showed significantly higher infection risk. Spatial analysis identified clustering in Shahroud County, suggesting local climatic and ecological conditions influence parasite ...

Identification and mapping of potential and highly likely vectors for selected vector‐borne diseases in the EU and neighbouring countries

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This report addresses Term of Reference 1.2 by providing a comprehensive knowledge‐mapping of arthropod vector species competent to transmit selected vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) including VBDs listed under Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as additional non‐listed pathogens with potential epidemiological relevance.

Pupipara (Diptera, Hippoboscidae) in wild birds attended at a rehabilitation center in southern Brazil

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
The hippoboscids are cosmopolitan permanent obligate hematophagous ectoparasites of birds, domestic and wild mammals and, occasionally, humans. Some species may act as vectors or hosts of etiological pathogenic agents.

Phylogenomics and the evolution of larval feeding habits in the blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic data from anchored hybrid enrichment provide a new phylogeny of Calliphoridae that delimits the family and confirms division into eight monophyletic subfamilies. Fossil‐calibrated divergence times place the origin of Calliphoridae in the mid‐Eocene (ca. 41 Mya) along with other rapidly radiating families of oestroid Diptera. Reconstruction
