How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 571-587, April 2026.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.

Signal Traits and Oxidative Stress: A Comparative Study Across Populations with Divergent Signals

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Diverging populations often shift patterns of signal use – a process that can contribute to reproductive isolation and speciation. Yet it is not clear why most traits gain or lose signal value during divergence.

Influence of Fluvial Structure on Benthic Macroinvertebrates in a Restored Meandering River, Geul Basin, Netherlands

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Benthic macroinvertebrates are indicators of water quality and riparian ecosystem health. Their abundance and distribution in streams are associated with river basin environmental factors, including stream biotic and abiotic fluvial processes. We examined benthic macroinvertebrate diversity and abundance in relation to large wood (LW) and pool‐

Aggregating three sources of long‐term trends of swallows and martins to identify priority conservation areas in the Great Lakes region

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our data integration methodology allows managers to identify regions that accumulate evidence of concerning trends across multiple wildlife monitoring schemes. These regions can thus be prioritized in conservation and management efforts. This approach can be generalized to other sources of long‐term monitoring data of different species, at different ...

Strong Variation in Land‐Use Change Impacts on Tropical Avian Phylogenetic Diversity Between Ecoregions Highlights the Need to Sample Large Spatial Scales

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
Forest conversion for agriculture is a major cause of biodiversity loss in the tropics, but its impacts depend on how broadly they are measured. Using data from across Colombia, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, we examined how deforestation for cattle farming affects the evolutionary history of bird species.

A NEW FEATHER MITE SPECIES OF THE GENUS TROUESSARTIA CANESTRINI (ACARIFORMES: TROUESSARTIIDAE) FROM THE NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED SWALLOW STELGIDOPTERYX SERRIPENNIS (PASSERIFORMES: HIRUNDINIDAE) IN PENNSYLVANIA [PDF]

, 2020
A new feather mite species, Trouessartia stelgidopteryx sp. n. (Astigmata: Trouessartiidae), is described from the Northern rough-winged swallow Stelgidopteryx serripennis Newton (Passeriformes: Hirundinidae) in Pennsylvania, USA. The new species is

Evolution of nest construction in swallows (Hirundinidae): a molecular phylogenetic perspective. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1993
Nest construction is more diverse in the Hirundinidae than in any other family of oscine birds. To explore the evolution of this diversity, we superimposed nest data on a DNA-hybridization phylogeny of 17 swallow species. Nest construction is tightly linked to the inferred evolutionary history.

Linking Habitat Conditions, Human Pressures, and Waterbird Diversity in a West African Coastal Wetland

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Tanji wetland complex, situated on the Atlantic coast of The Gambia, is a coastal mosaic of mangroves, riparian forest, lagoons, and offshore islands of high ornithological significance. Despite its protected status, the reserve faces mounting pressures from human activities and environmental change, yet comprehensive ecological data ...
