From Spurious Interference to Biological Signal: Repurposing Weather Radars to Monitor and Study the Amazonian Avifauna [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionMany species of swallows and martins congregate in large nonbreeding aggregations throughout the Americas. These roosts typically occur for several days to weeks in the same place during the same time of the year and disappear suddenly as the birds ...

Case of Human Infestation with Dermanyssus gallinae (Poultry Red Mite) from Swallows (Hirundinidae) [PDF]
Pathogens, 2021 Dermanyssus gallinae (the poultry red mite, PRM) is an important ectoparasite in the laying hen industry. PRM can also infest humans, causing gamasoidosis, which is manifested as skin lesions characterized by rash and itching. Recently, there has been an

Comparative analyses of three swallow species (Aves, Passeriformes, Hirundinidae): Insights on karyotype evolution and genomic organization [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020 Despite the richness of species in the Hirudinidae family, little is known about the genome organization of swallows. The Progne tapera species presents genetic and morphological difference when compared to other members of the same genus.

Convergent evolution in social swallows (Aves: Hirundinidae) [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 AbstractBehavioral shifts can initiate morphological evolution by pushing lineages into new adaptive zones. This has primarily been examined in ecological behaviors, such as foraging, but social behaviors may also alter morphology. Swallows and martins (Hirundinidae) are aerial insectivores that exhibit a range of social behaviors, from solitary to ...

Population monitoring and conservation implications of intra‐ and interspecific nest occupation rates in swallows [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionWith the exception of a few groups of birds, such as large raptors and colonial seabirds, direct counts of nests cannot be conducted over very large areas for most of the abundant and widely distributed species, and thus indirect methods are used to ...

DNA metabarcoding reveals distinct trophic niches among sympatric aerial insectivores (Family: Apodidae and Hirundinidae) in central Peninsular Malaysia [PDF]
Nature ConservationUnderstanding the dietary preferences of aerial insectivores is essential for assessing their ecological roles in ecosystem energy flow. Despite this importance, few integrative studies have examined dietary overlap and niche segregation among coexisting
