The Effects of Land‐Use Dynamics on Avian Phylogenetic Diversity Across Island Ecosystems

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To test whether forest extent and recent forest‐cover change are associated with avian phylogenetic diversity and community‐level evolutionary value across islands.

Variable social organization and breeding system of a social parrot revealed by genetic analysis

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 451-464, April 2026.
Social organization and contributions to reproduction vary widely within and between species that breed in groups. Such variation often arises from the process of group formation, which drives patterns of relatedness and hence the degree of social conflict and co‐operation between group members.

How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 571-587, April 2026.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.

Urbanization and Seasonality Increase Introduced Plant Consumption by the World's Southernmost Parrot 城市化与季节性增加了全球最南端鹦鹉对引入植物的取食

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 86-103, March 2026.
Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...
