Bird species of black water inundation forests in the Jau National Park (Amazonas state, Brazil): their contribution to regional species richness
(Kluwer Academic Publ, 2000-02-01)
We compared the relative contribution of blackwater inundation forest (igapo) and unflooded (terra firme) forest for regional bird species diversity in the lower Rio Negro region. For analyses of habitat preference we used ...

Effect of air temperature and water depth on bird abundance: A case study of rallidae and anatidae in the northeastern Algerian Garaet Hadj Tahar
(Zoological Soc Pakistan, 2019-02)
Water birds have traditionally been used as ecological indicators to monitor natural habitats and wetland changes. Climate is widely recognized as a major predictor of bird abundance and richness along large-scale environmental ...
Giardiasis in birds
(2018-01-01)
The protozoan Giardia spp. is a flagellate intestinal parasite and six species are recognized, being G. agilis that affects amphibians, G. psittaci and G. ardeae that infect birds, G. microti and G. muris that can be present ...
Water economy of three Cinclodes (Furnariidae) species inhabiting marine and freshwater ecosystems
(SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2004-06)
Birds living in desert environments have been the preferred models for the study of physiological adaptations to water scarcity. Passerine birds living in marine coastal habitats face similar problems, yet physiological ...
Global warming and avian occupancy of hot deserts: a physiological and behavioral perspective
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2000)
Small intestinal epithelial permeability to water-soluble nutrients higher in passerine birds than in rodents
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-12)
In the small intestine transcellular and paracellular pathways are implicated in water-soluble nutrient absorption. In small birds the paracellular pathway is quantitatively important while transcellular pathway is much ...
