Crowding in the city: losing and winning competitors of an invasive bird. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Invasive species can take advantage of resources unexploited by natives (opportunism hypothesis) or they can exploit the same resources but more aggressively or efficiently (competition hypothesis), thus impacting native species.

A protective nesting association with native species counteracts biotic resistance for the spread of an invasive parakeet from urban into rural habitats

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2020
Background Non-native species are often introduced in cities, where they take advantage of microclimatic conditions, resources provided by humans, and competitor/predator release to establish and proliferate.

Lazarus ecology: Recovering the distribution and migratory patterns of the extinct Carolina parakeet. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The study of the ecology and natural history of species has traditionally ceased when a species goes extinct, despite the benefit to current and future generations of potential findings.

Monk Parakeets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Since their introduction to the United States in the 1960s, monk parakeets (Myiopsittamonachus) have thrived. Monk parakeets often construct nests on man-made structures, such as electric utility facilities and cell phone towers. Monk parakeets are non-native and not protected by the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

Comparative Pharmacokinetics and Allometric Scaling of Carboplatin in Different Avian Species. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The use of chemotherapeutics as a possible treatment strategy in avian oncology is steadily increasing over the last years. Despite this, literature reports regarding dosing strategies and pharmacokinetic behaviour of chemotherapeutics in avian species ...

Diet assessments as a tool to control invasive species: comparison between Monk and Rose-ringed parakeets with stable isotopes

open access: yesJournal of Urban Ecology, 2020
Food is a main limiting factor for most populations. As a consequence, knowledge about the diet of invasive alien species determines the design of control measures. The Monk and Rose-ringed parakeets are two typical species of successful invasive parrots

Do Invasive Mosquito and Bird Species Alter Avian Malaria Parasite Transmission?

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Alien mosquito and vertebrate host species may create novel epidemiological scenarios for the transmission of pathogens naturally circulating in the invaded area. The exotic Monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) has established populations in Europe and is

Combining trade data and niche modelling improves predictions of the origin and distribution of non-native European populations of a globally invasive species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aim: Although propagule pressure and environmental constraints are among the most important factors determining invasion success, studies considering both factors simultaneously are scarce.

Phenotypic signatures of urbanization are scale-dependent : a multi-trait study on a classic urban exploiter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Understanding at which spatial scales anthropogenic selection pressures operate most strongly is a prerequisite for efficient conservation and management of urban biodiversity.
