Ecological constraints on digestive physiology in carnivorous and piscivorous birds

Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1999
Digestion strategies of meat- and fish-eating birds have received little attention, and the assumption has generally been made that there is rather little variation in digestion parameters between species in these guilds. We show that there is significant though small variation between species in apparent absorption efficiency.

New records and insights of digenean trematodes parasitising piscivorous birds (Pelecaniformes and Suliformes) in Lake Victoria Basin, Tanzania

African Zoology
Trematodes are parasitic flatworms that utilise multiple hosts during their life cycles. Their presence reflects the diversity of available host species, making them valuable indicators of ecosystem health. However, our understanding of their occurrence,

Hindlimb myology in two piscivorous raptorial birds: a quantitative comparison of the osprey and the white‐tailed sea eagle (Aves, Accipitriformes)

Journal of Zoology
The hindlimbs of Accipitriformes are vital for capturing prey. Research on hindlimb musculature has primarily focused on species preferring avian and mammalian prey, whereas piscivorous species have received limited attention.
