Journal ArticleDOI
Global hotspots of species richness are not congruent with endemism or threat
C. David L. Orme,Richard G. Davies,Malcolm D. Burgess,Felix Eigenbrod,Nicola Pickup,Valerie A. Olson,Andrea J. Webster,Tzung-Su Ding,Pamela C. Rasmussen,Robert S. Ridgely,Ali J. Stattersfield,Peter M. Bennett,Tim M. Blackburn,Kevin J. Gaston,Ian P. F. Owens +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hotspots of species richness, threat and endemism do not show the same geographical distribution and this suggests that, even within a single taxonomic class, different mechanisms are responsible for the origin and maintenance of different aspects of diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tritrophic phenological match-mismatch in space and time.
Malcolm D. Burgess,Malcolm D. Burgess,Ken W. Smith,Karl L. Evans,Dave I. Leech,James W. Pearce-Higgins,James W. Pearce-Higgins,Claire J. Branston,Kevin Briggs,John R. Clark,Chris du Feu,Kate Lewthwaite,Ruedi G. Nager,Ben C. Sheldon,Jeremy A. Smith,Robin C. Whytock,Stephen G. Willis,Albert B. Phillimore +17 more
TL;DR: Latitudinal invariance in the direction of mismatch may act as a double-edged sword that presents no opportunities for spatial buffering from the effects of mismatch on population size, but generates spatially consistent directional selection on timing, which could facilitate rapid evolutionary change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct versus indirect sexual selection: genetic basis of colour, size and recruitment in a wild bird
Jarrod D. Hadfield,Malcolm D. Burgess,Alexa M. Lord,Albert B. Phillimore,Sonya M. Clegg,Ian P. F. Owens +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that variation in coloration is only weakly heritable, and that two components of offspring fitness—nestling size and fledgling recruitment—are strongly dependent on parental effects, rather than genetic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light‐level geolocators reveal migratory connectivity in European populations of pied flycatchers Ficedula hypoleuca
Janne Ouwehand,Markus Ahola,A. N. M. A. Ausems,Eli S. Bridge,Malcolm D. Burgess,Steffen Hahn,Chris M. Hewson,Raymond H. G. Klaassen,Toni Laaksonen,Helene M. Lampe,William Velmala,Christiaan Both +11 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesised that population differences in wintering longitudes of pied flycatchers result from geographical variation in breeding phenology and the timing of fuelling for spring migration at the wintering grounds, as well as the potential ecological factors causing such an unexpected pattern of migratory connectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A weak effect on apparent survival of tagged birds is found and key aspects and drivers of tagging effects are pinpointed, which encourage further use of geolocators on small bird species but the ethical aspects and scientific benefits should always be considered.
