Novel adenovirus associated with common tern (Sterna hirundo) chicks

Archives of Virology, 2022
Adenoviruses have been identified in a wide variety of avian species, and in some species, they have been shown to cause disease and increase mortality. As part of an endeavor to investigate viruses associated with common terns (Sterna hirundo), a novel adenovirus was identified in fecal samples from two common terns on Gull Island, Lake Ontario ...

Parasites of Common (Sterna hirundo) and Arctic (Sterna paradisaea) Terns (Charadriiformes, Laridae) in Karelia

Biology Bulletin, 2020
The fauna of parasites of Common (Sterna hirundo) and Arctic (Sterna paradisaea) terns obtained during the spring hunting period of 2013–2015 on the coast of Lake Ladoga has been studied. We found 15 species of parasites of various systematic groups: Cestoda (six species), Trematoda (four species), Nematoda (two species), Acanthocephala (two species ...

Microplastic ingestion by common terns (Sterna hirundo) and their prey during the non-breeding season.

Environmental Pollution, 2023
Current evidence demonstrates the presence and persistence of microplastics in the marine food web. Seabirds are predators in marine ecosystems and are highly exposed to marine plastic debris through the food.

Abnormal Plumage in Adult Common Terns Sterna hirundo during the Breeding Season

Ardea, 2022
Some bird species change their plumage colour on a seasonal basis, mostly between cryptic non-breeding plumage and conspicuous breeding plumage. Adult Common Terns Sterna hirundo moult their body feathers twice each year, resulting in two types of ...

Phenology and breeding ecology of Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) in Bermuda: An ecologically distinctive island population, now critically endangered

The Wilson Journal of Ornithology, 2021
Breeding Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) have been studied extensively in North America and Europe, but little is known of the small, isolated populations south of the main continental ranges.

Divorce and asynchronous arrival in common terns, Sterna hirundo

Animal Behaviour, 1999
We investigated which of three hypotheses (better option, incompatibility or asynchronous arrival) best explains divorce in the common tern. One partner did not return the next year in 18.5% of 150 pairs. Among the 106 pairs in which both mates returned, the divorce rate was 18.9%.
