Global trade in parrots – Influential factors of trade and implications for conservation

TL;DR: In this paper, a large dataset derived from the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) was used to uncover the spatial-temporal changes in trade volumes and sources of parrots, the topology of the trade network, and the factors behind the global parrot trade in the past 42 years (1975-2016).
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolutionary history and mechanistic basis of female ornamentation in a tropical songbird

TL;DR: The evolutionary history of ornament expression in a tropical passerine bird, the White‐shouldered Fairywren, is evaluated and it is revealed that some ornamentation in females is linked to testosterone and that sexes differ in ornament‐linked gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species richness of bat flies and their associations with host bats in a subtropical East Asian region

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the identities, host specificity, and patterns of host association of bat flies in a subtropical region in East Asia, which is an understudied region for bat fly research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole‐genome phylogeography of the blue‐faced honeyeater (Entomyzon cyanotis) and discovery and characterization of a neo‐Z chromosome

TL;DR: It is shown that, as in some sylvioid passerine birds, a fusion occurred between chromosome 5 and the Z chromosome to form a neo-Z chromosome, and in E. cyanotis, the ancestral pseudoautosomal region (PAR) appears non-recombinant between Z and W, along with most of the fused chromosome 5.
