Weak Nuclear Divergence Despite Pronounced Mitochondrial Divergence Within a Widespread Desert‐Inhabiting Palearctic Lark (Aves: Alaudidae)

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Bar‐tailed Lark Ammomanes cinctura is a polytypic bird species with a wide distribution. One of its three subspecies, A. c. arenicolor, has previously been found to show deep mitochondrial divergence between its geographically most distant populations, from Morocco and Saudi Arabia, respectively.

Genetic Diversity Impacts Climate‐Induced Species Range Shifts

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
Genetic diversity may buffer species against climate‐driven range contractions and facilitate expansions, but its role at a global scale remains unclear. Using 4673 range shift estimates for 1888 species, we show that higher genetic diversity reduces trailing edge contractions under rapid warming and accelerates leading edge expansions under moderate ...

Testing the delivery of conservation schemes for farmland birds at the farm-scale during winter, in Southern lowland England

, 2013
Many farmland bird species across Europe have continued to show population declines since the 1970s, as a result of agricultural intensification. A large number of conservation schemes and initiatives have emerged from Government and the food industry ...

Species characteristics predict the effectiveness of avian survey methods in an Afromontane sky‐island

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 520-540, April 2026.
Biodiversity conservation requires effective monitoring of ecological communities in remote locations, where limited accessibility often restricts survey efforts. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is becoming an established method for measuring biodiversity, facilitated by the increased accessibility of autonomous recording units.

Using acoustic indices to detect interspecific bird interactions and behaviour

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 541-553, April 2026.
Communication networks and acoustic interactions play a crucial role in shaping animal communities by mediating information exchange between individuals. These interactions contribute to the biophonic component of the soundscape—the acoustic environment of a place—which is increasingly analysed to understand ecosystem structure and functioning. However,

Sex‐biased dispersal in the Arabian babbler (Argya squamiceps)

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 604-615, April 2026.
Sex‐biased dispersal plays a central role in shaping social structure and reproductive strategies in many bird species. In the Arabian Babbler Argya squamiceps, a cooperatively breeding species with pronounced male philopatry, dispersal occurs individually or in kin‐based same‐sex coalitions.
