Population genetic analyses reveal female reproductive philopatry in the oviparous Port Jackson shark

Marine and Freshwater Research, 2019
Restricted gene flow and reproductive philopatry are increasingly being described in marine predators such as sharks. However, observing shark reproductive behaviour in situ is problematic because of issues associated with sampling in the marine ...

Male Philopatry in Mallards

The Condor, 1990
Most North American ducks (Anatini) form pair-bonds on wintering areas or during spring migration (Hochbaum 1944, Rohwer and Anderson 1988). Females generally select new mates each year with males following females homing to their natal areas (Lincoln 1939, Sowls 1955, Johnson and Grier 1988).

Detectability, philopatry, and the distribution of dispersal distances in vertebrates

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1996
Dispersal is of central importance to population biology, behavioral ecology and conservation. However, because field studies are based on finite study areas, nearly all dispersal distributions for vertebrates currently available are biased, often highly so.

Migratory connectivity and philopatry of cownose rays Rhinoptera bonasus along the Atlantic coast, USA

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2018
: Migratory species link spatially separated ecosystems, and understanding their migrations is critical for conservation and management. The cownose ray Rhinoptera bonasus is a large-bodied batoid ray implicated in shellfish declines along the US ...

Site Fidelity and Natal Philopatry in Dickcissels

Northeastern Naturalist, 2012
Spiza americana (Dickcissel) colonized a restored Conservation Reserve Program grassland in Maryland during the second year of restoration and has continued to return in subsequent years. In 2000-2010, we banded 125 adult and hatch-year birds; during this period the population ranged annually from one to 16 individuals. Twenty-one percent of adult male

Possible female philopatry of the smooth hammerhead shark Sphyrna zygaena revealed by genetic structure patterns.

Journal of Fish Biology, 2019
We assessed the spatial pattern of genetic structure of smooth hammerhead shark Sphyrna zygaena in 10 localities from the Northern Mexican Pacific. A total of 35 haplotypes were identified in 129 sequences of the mtDNA control region.

Natal Philopatry Among Solitary Mammals

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1983
Although many studies treat the causes and consequences of dispersal in mammalian populations, less attention has been given to the individuals that do not leave their birthplaces. Yet natal philopatry, which we define as continued residence on the natal home range past the age of independence from the parents, occurs in virtually all gregarious ...

The date and purpose of the Philopatris

1982
Of unknown authorship, uncertain date, and debatable purpose, the Philopatris is one of the more curious documents to emanate from later antiquity. Its frequently peculiar language and its attempt to fuse traditional elements of the Platonic-cum-Lucianic dialogue with the newer demands of Christian orthodoxy conspire to make it a work of considerable

Partial migration and philopatry of Yellowstone pronghorn

Biological Conservation, 2007
Abstract Spring migration may facilitate survival and recruitment in mammals by reducing predation risk and increasing access to higher-quality forage. The Yellowstone pronghorn Antilocapra americana population ( 70% of the pronghorn population migrating 15–50 km to 4 contiguous summering areas ...
