Short‐term survival of mallards following external transmitter attachment

Ibis, EarlyView.
Capturing birds for external transmitter attachment allows researchers to collect abundant movement and behavioural data across spatial and temporal gradients but can expose birds to additional stress due to prolonged handling, sometimes leading to mortality.

Geolocation reveals wintering sites of near‐extinct Caucasian breeding sea duck

Ibis, EarlyView.
We obtained 14 sets of full annual cycle geolocator tracks from 13 individual nesting female Velvet Scoter Melanitta fusca from the relict Caucasian population at their last remaining breeding site, Lake Tabatskuri, Georgia. Results showed that females wintered at widespread discrete localities in Ukraine, around the coasts of the Crimean Peninsula and

Estructura de la comunidad y asociación de las aves acuáticas con la heterogeneidad espacial del complejo lagunar Bahía Magdalena-Almejas, Baja California Sur, México

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2008
Para probar la hipótesis que la heterogeneidad espacial determina la diversidad de aves acuáticas en un humedal costero, comparamos la densidad, diversidad y composición de especies de aves acuáticas entre habitats y otras unidades de paisaje del ...

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds

Ibis, EarlyView.
Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

Isolation and Identification of Erysipelothrix sp. in Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × E. lanceolatus) in Taiwan

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In February 2025, a mortality event of unknown aetiology occurred at a hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × Epinephelus lanceolatus) aquaculture farm in southern Taiwan, with sporadic daily deaths persisting for a month. Four moribund groupers were collected over three sampling intervals for diagnostic investigation.

The role of waterbirds in the dispersal of freshwater cladocera and bryozoa in southern Africa [PDF]

, 2017
It has long been presumed that waterbirds disperse the propagules of aquatic organisms. However, it is only in recent years that this claim has been empirically explored and little is still known about waterbird-mediated dispersal in southern Africa ...

For colonization success, should hosts and microbes travel alone, together, or swap partners along the way?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Experimental co‐introduction of duckweeds (Lemna japonica) and their microbiome in a common pond. Summary Microbiomes that enhance the performance of host plants are likely to be co‐introduced with their host during colonization because of their intimate association.
