Prominent role of invasive species in avian biodiversity loss
TL;DR: It is shown that bird families with the highest extinction risk are primarily associated with threats posed by invasive species, once species richness and phylogeny are taken into account, and the impacts of invasive species promote the process of taxonomic homogenization among islands and between islands and continents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographical variation in blood parasites in feral pigeons: the role of vectors.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that prevalence of Haemoproteus columbae in feral pigeons Columba livia varied among five near-by populations (range 15%-100%), paralleled by variation in the abundance of its main vector, Pseudolynchia canariensis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brains, lifestyles and cognition: are there general trends?
Louis Lefebvre,Daniel Sol +1 more
TL;DR: From apes to birds, fish and beetles, a few common principles appear to have influenced the evolution of brains and cognition in widely divergent taxa.
Geographical variation in blood parasites in feral pigeons: the role
TL;DR: Observational and experimental evidence supports the view that vector abundance is the major factor influencing the spatial variation in prevalence of H. columbae in pigeons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioural flexibility predicts species richness in birds, but not extinction risk
TL;DR: It is shown that behavioural flexibility predicts richness but not extinction risk in birds, and it is predicted that the two flexibility correlates will be negatively associated with the number of species at risk.
