Infectious agents present in monk parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) and rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri) invasive species in the parks of Madrid and Seville, Spain [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023 IntroductionThe introduction of invasive species into an ecosystem could result in biodiversity loss and the spread of infectious agents that could cause re-emergent or emergent zoonotic diseases.

Annual Censuses and Citizen Science Data Show Rapid Population Increases and Range Expansion of Invasive Rose-Ringed and Monk Parakeets in Seville, Spain [PDF]
Animals, 2022 Population changes of invasive species can go unnoticed long before population explosions, so long-term monitoring programs are needed to assess changes in population size.

The Number and Distribution of Introduced and Naturalized Parrots [PDF]
Diversity, 2021 Parrots have been transported and traded by humans for at least the last 2000 years and this trade continues unabated today. This transport of species has involved the majority of recognized parrot species (300+ of 382 species).

Parrots in the wild in Polish cities. [PDF]
PLoS ONEAmateur breeding of parrots as pets has contributed to many species being found in areas where they never occurred in the wild, particularly in warmer regions, but also in the temperate climates of North America and Europe.

Returning to the Wilderness: Potential Habitat Suitability of Non-Native Pet Birds in South Africa [PDF]
BiologyThe global trade of non-native pet birds has increased in recent decades, and this has accelerated the introduction of invasive birds in the wild. This study employed ensemble species distribution modelling (eSDM) to assess potential habitat suitability ...

Rose-ringed Parakeet Psittacula krameri Populations and Numbers in Europe: A Complete Overview [PDF]
Open Ornithology Journal, 2016 Background: Alien species are one of the major causes contributing to biodiversity loss. In Europe, over 340 alien bird species have been recorded in the wild, of which 74 are established. Among 12 established alien parrot species in Europe, the Rose-ringed Parakeet (RRP) Psittacula krameri is the most abundant ...

Nesting innovations allow population growth in an invasive population of rose-ringed parakeets. [PDF]
Curr Zool, 2022 Abstract Certain traits of recipient environments, such as the availability of limiting resources, strongly determine the establishment success and spread of non-native species. These limitations may be overcome through behavioral plasticity, allowing them to exploit alternative resources. Here, we show how a secondary cavity nester bird,

Multi-layer networks reveal changes in plant-bird interactions driven by invasive species [PDF]
Communications BiologyBiological invasions can strongly disrupt ecosystems, reshaping their structure and functioning. We investigate how two widespread invasive parrots –the rose-ringed parakeet Psittacula krameri and the monk parakeet Myiopsitta monachus- affect plant-bird ...
