Vertebrate diversity and biomass along a recovery gradient in a lowland tropical forest

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 1, January 2025.
Deforestation of tropical forests has resulted in large areas of secondary forests with the potential for biodiversity to re‐establish to levels usually found in old‐growth forests. This study shows that diversity and biomass of mammals and birds in regenerating forests can recover to old‐growth levels within a relatively short time.

Anthropogenic nesting substrates increase parental fitness in a Neotropical songbird, the pale‐breasted thrush Turdus leucomelas

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, January 2025.
The failure of breeding attempts is a major hindrance to bird reproduction, making nest site choice under strong selective pressure. Urbanization may offer lower risk of nest predation to certain bird species, but the impact of using anthropogenic structures as nesting sites on parental fitness is seldom studied.

Assessing the global prevalence of wild birds in trade

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Trade represents a significant threat to many wild species and is often clandestine and poorly monitored. Information on which species are most prevalent in trade and potentially threatened by it therefore remains fragmentary. We used 7 global data sets on birds in trade to identify species or groups of species at particular risk and assessed ...

Integrating multiple data sources to develop range and area of habitat maps tailored for local contexts

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Aim Global species distribution maps tend to be limited to a reduced number of species or are too coarse to inform ecological research and conservation actions at local scales. We developed a workflow to generate species range and area of habitat (AOH) maps tailored to local contexts based on expert information, community science observations ...

Global distribution range of birds is negatively correlated with their level of diet specialization

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 10, Page 2062-2069, October 2024.
Abstract Aim Understanding the factors determining the size of a species distribution range is crucial to preventing the extinction of vulnerable species, particularly specialist species. Previous research has shown that climate and various traits of a species significantly affect its distribution range size.
