Molecular and morphological studies on Contracaecum rudolphii A and C. rudolphii B in great cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) from Italy and Israel [PDF]
The distribution of parasites is shaped by a variety of factors, among which are the migratory movements of their hosts. Israel has a unique position to migratory routes of several bird species leaving Europe to winter in Africa, however, detailed ...

Microchemical provenancing of prey remains in cormorant pellets reveals the use of diverse foraging grounds. [PDF]
Microchemical provenancing was successfully applied to otoliths exposed to digestion by piscivorous birds and it was possible to clarify on a small scale from which waterbodies or habitat clusters the birds obtain their food. By the use of prey provenancing, site‐specific management plans can be developed and the effect of management measures on ...
