Contrasting Forest Trajectories Drive Changes in Bird Functional Traits
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Aim We investigated how bird functional diversity varies across forest habitat types with distinct successional trajectories, namely (1) natural succession forests, with naturally regenerating forests established on former grasslands; (2) secondary forest remnants resulting from deforestation; and (3) conserved forests.

The mechanisms and ecology of water balance in hummingbirds [PDF]
, 2007 Hummingbirds are confronted with an osmoregulatory dilemma: when feeding, their high rates of water intake require them to eliminate ingested water quickly; yet, during fasts, their capacity to eliminate water makes them susceptible to dehydration ...

Energy Management in Migrating Hummingbirds
, 2022 Hummingbirds are the smallest of migratory birds. Their use of hovering flight to feed on nectar results in prodigious rates of energy consumption. At night, when birds are unable to feed, body fat must be used to stay warm.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2018 Using track analysis and cladistic biogeography, we identified areas of endemism of hummingbirds in the Andean and Neotropical regions. Our results point out that the current areas of endemism of hummingbirds occur in the Andes, Guiana Shield, the Lesser

Nectar provision attracts hummingbirds and connects interaction networks across habitats
, 2022 Many ecosystems have been modified by humans, creating novel habitats that include human-provided resources. Gardens adjacent to native habitats may affect plant–pollinator interactions by altering the determinants of interactions and species ...
