First Genetically Differentiation between Upupa epops major and Upupa epops epops (Family: Upupidae)
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2022 Hoopoe has been traditionally treated as a single species within the order Coraciiformes. Presently, however, various authors have suggested separating the hoopoe into two or more species and even its order, Bucerotiformes. So, this work aimed to use the

Journal of Insect Science, 2011 Abstract The population characteristics of the louse, Upupicola upupae (Shrank) (Mallophaga: Philopteridae: Ishnocera), infesting the Common Hoopae, Upupa epops L. (Aves: Upupiformes), were recorded during 2007-08 in District Rampur, Uttar Pradesh India. The pattern of frequency distribution of the louse conformed to the negative binomial model.

Autoclaving Nest-Material Remains Influences the Probability of Ectoparasitism of Nestling Hoopoes (Upupa epops) [PDF]
Biology, 2020 Nest bacterial environment influences avian reproduction directly because it might include pathogenic- or antibiotic-producing bacteria or indirectly because predators or ectoparasites can use volatile compounds from nest bacterial metabolism to detect ...

Population expansion of the Hoopoe Upupa epops in Silesia, SW Poland [PDF]
Rivista Italiana di Ornitologia - Research in Ornithology, 2016 A total of 258 breeding pairs of the Hoopoe were recorded in Silesia (c. 42,000 km2), SW Poland, during the years 2004- 2008. This is almost twice more than during the years 1978-1987 (136 pairs). This increase was rather unexpected.

Comparative Histological and Ultrastructural Studies on Lung of The Egyptian Hoopoe (Upupa epops major) and The European Hoopoe (Upupa epops epops) [PDF]
Catrina: the International Journal of Environmntal Sciences, 2013 The lung of birds is the most complex and efficient gas exchanger that has evolved in the air-breathing vertebrates. Lung tissues of the Egyptian hoopoe (upupa epops major) and the European hoopoe (upupa epops epops) which inhabit Damietta governorate in Egypt were subjected to comparative histological and ultrastructural studies.

Microsatellites for the hoopoes (Upupa epops) and their application to the parentage analysis
Conservation Genetics Resources, 2009 We isolated and characterized nine polymorphic microsatellite loci from a partial genomic library enriched for tetranucleotide repeats in the hoopoe (Upupa epops). A panel of up to 34 adult individuals with unknown relationship was used to characterize polymorphism of these loci.
