Large Regional Variation in Global Impacts of Agriculture on Terrestrial Insects and Other Arthropods

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
We show that impacts of agriculture on arthropod biodiversity are notably less negative in Europe than in other regions, which we find is driven by a degraded baseline, a selection bias of reference sites, and novel species compositions in agriculture that favour widespread habitat generalists and non‐native species.

Complete subspecies-level phylogeny of the Oriolidae (Aves: Passeriformes): Out of Australasia and return.

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2019
Old World orioles (Oriolidae) are medium-sized passerine birds confined largely to forested areas of Africa, Eurasia and Australasia. We present a new complete molecular (mtDNA) subspecies level phylogeny of the Oriolidae including all 113 taxa (35 ...

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Functional Morphology of the Pedal Musculature and Grip Force Estimation in the Red‑and‑Green Macaw (Ara chloropterus Gray, 1859)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 8, August 2026.
Integration of detailed hindlimb anatomy with biomechanical analyses demonstrates that pedal performance in the red‐and‐green macaw is driven by specialized muscle architecture and force distribution. Hypertrophy of digit IV flexor musculature, together with modifications of the intrinsic and extensor muscles, enhances grasping stability, climbing, and

Blankaartia sinnamaryi (Trombidiformes: Trombiculidae) parasitizing birds in southeastern Brazil, with notes on Rickettsia detection

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2018
The larvae of the family Trombiculidae are ectoparasites of vertebrates, including birds. The bite of some species can cause deep lesions and severe skin reactions in the host, these can lead to dermatitis, popularly known as trombiculiasis.

DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring.
