The Eurasian Collared-Dove arrives in the Americas

چکیده
burgeoning southeast Florida population of collared Streptopelia doves was in fact $. decaocto, the Eurasian Collared-Dove (Smith and Kale 1986). Although some observers had independently identified them correctly (e.g. White 1986), these birds had been overlooked for several years by the birding and ornithological communities on the assumption that they were Ringed Turtle-Doves ( S. 'risoria '). Because this population is now well established and is increasing and spreading rapidly, it deserves attention. What is the Eurasian Collared-Dove?

MtDNA genetic diversity and structure of Eurasian Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto)
The Eurasian Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) is one of the most successful biological invaders among terrestrial vertebrates. However, little information is available on the genetic diversity of the species. A total of 134 Eurasian Collared Doves from Europe, Asia and the Caribbean (n = 20) were studied by sequencing a 658-bp length of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome oxidase I (COI)....

متن کاملRange Expansion and Population Dynamics of an Invasive Species: The Eurasian Collared-Dove (Streptopelia decaocto)
Invasive species offer ecologists the opportunity to study the factors governing species distributions and population growth. The Eurasian Collared-Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) serves as a model organism for invasive spread because of the wealth of abundance records and the recent development of the invasion. We tested whether a set of environmental variables were related to the carrying capaci...

متن کاملCharacterization of velogenic Newcastle disease viruses isolated from dead wild birds in Serbia during 2007.
Avian paramyxoviruses type 1 or Newcastle disease viruses (NDV) are frequently recovered from wild birds and such isolates are most frequently of low virulence. Velogenic NDV are usually recovered from poultry and only occasionally from wild birds. Five NDV isolates were obtained from carcasses of four wild bird species during 2007 in Serbia: Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos), Eurasian Sparrowhawk (...
