Pliocene diversification within the South American Forest falcons (Falconidae: Micrastur).
The Neotropics are one of the most species rich regions on Earth, with over 3150 species of birds. This unrivaled biodiversity has been attributed to higher proportions of mountain ranges, tropical rain forest or rain fall in the forest than in any other major biogeographic regions. Five primary hypotheses aim to explain processes of diversification within the Neotropics; (1) the Pleistocene re...
متن کاملBreeding Biology of the Eurasian Nuthatch in Northeastern Siberia
AnsTn.Kr. -The breeding biology of Eurasian Nuthatches (Sitta europaea asiatica) was studied in 1986-1990 in two habitats, riparian and upland forests, in the Magadan region, northeastern Siberia. Clutch sizes and breeding success averaged 6.49 eggs and 57.5%, respectively, and varied among years. Habitat influenced clutch size but not numbers of young fledged from successful nests. Within seas...
متن کاملSex in the City: Breeding Behavior of Urban Peregrine Falcons in the Midwestern US
Peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) were extirpated from most of the continental United States by widespread use of the pesticide DDT in the 1960s. Populations have rebounded with banning of the pesticide and successful implementation of captive breeding and hacking programs. An essentially new population of Midwestern peregrines now exists that is comprised almost entirely of urban-nesting bi...
متن کاملBreeding Biology of Passerines in a Subtropical Montane Forest in Northwestern Argentina
The breeding ecology of south temperate bird species is less widely known than that of north temperate species, yet because they comprise a large portion of the world’s avian diversity, knowledge of their breeding ecology can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the geographic diversity of avian reproductive traits and life history strategies. We provide the first detailed examin...
متن کاملBreeding Biology of Swainson's Warblers in a Managed South Carolina Bottomland Forest
THOMPSON, JENNIFER LAURIE. Breeding biology of Swainson’s Warblers in a managed South Carolina bottomland forest. (Under the direction of Richard A. Lancia) Conservation plans for the southeastern U.S. have identified Swainson’s Warblers (Limnothlypis swainsonii) to be among the more vulnerable Neotropical migrants. The Swainson’s Warbler (SWWA) is currently ranked as the second most endangered...
