Changes in forest cover from forest to non-forest systems alter habitat structure and resource availability, thereby affecting the functional composition of bird communities. This study aimed to identify and compare the ...

Abstract The progressive erosion of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) in Java, a process exacerbated by colonial disruption, has created a critical disjuncture in biodiversity data. This research examined the 19th-c...

Migratory birds are implicated in dispersing haemosporidian parasites over great geographic distances. However, their role in sharing these vector-transmitted blood parasites with resident avian host species along their ...

Background and Aim: Mycotoxin contamination in poultry feed, particularly aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin-A (OTA), induces immunosuppression and compromises vaccine efficacy, leading to substantial economic losses in ...

The present study was conducted from February 2024 to May 2025 in the Raha sub-district of Nagaon, Assam, to provide the first avian checklist of the region. Surveys were conducted weekly, with observations carried out o...

ABSTRACT Diarrheagenic (DEC) and avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) are associated with intestinal and extra-intestinal infections (ExPEC), respectively. We aimed to analyze the antimicrobial susceptibility, gene e...

The New World suboscines (Passeriformes and Tyrannides) are one of the biggestendemic vertebrate radiations in South America, including the families Furnariidaeand Tyrannidae. Avian brain morphology is a reliable proxy t...

Until the spread of digital recording technology, our knowledge of the history of avian vocal culture was based on onomatopoeic descriptions or notations inspired by musical notation. In the 1960s, hand-drawn annotations...

Abstract The bony palate of palaeognaths was long thought to retain the plesiomorphic condition for crown birds, but recent fossil evidence suggests that aspects of palaeognath palate morphology are derived from a neogna...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza A (H5N1) remains a major zoonotic threat, yet human infections continue to display striking heterogeneity in clinical severity. We report a fatal case of H5N1 pneumonia in an adult patie...

Acoustic indices provide a statistical method to quantify and assess relationships between soundscapes and avian diversity; however, more testing is necessary before acoustic indices are accepted as suitable proxies for ...

We present a preliminary checklist of bird species in the wetland of Dhamapur Lake, a World Heritage irrigation structure in Sindhudurg District, Maharashtra, derived from studies between July 2019 and November 2024. A t...

Climate change is undermining the effectiveness of static reserve systems by shifting species distributions and increasing the opportunity costs of conservation, particularly for land and water under more frequent temper...

Magic of Wonders and Emotional Connectivity are two different characteristics in the field of Ecocriticism. For Eco-critics, a world is a narrow space, not a wide space. They see everything through the lens of science an...

Abstract Bird wings exhibit a broad degree of functional and shape variation, though the exact nature of the form-function relationship is uncertain. Recent analysis suggests that functional variability is explained by l...
