| effects of an alien ant invasion on abundance, behavior, and reproductive success of endemic island birds. | biological invaders can reconfigure ecological networks in communities, which changes community structure, composition, and ecosystem function. we investigated whether impacts caused by the introduced yellow crazy ant (anoplolepis gracilipes), a pantropical invader rapidly expanding its range, extend to higher-order consumers by comparing counts, behaviors, and nesting success of endemic forest birds in ant-invaded and uninvaded rainforest on christmas island (indian ocean). point counts and dir ... | 2008 | 18637918 |
| interspecific comparison of traffic noise effects on dove coo transmission in urban environments. | most previous studies concerning avian adaptation to anthropogenic noise have focused on songbirds, but few have focused on non-songbirds commonly found in urban environments such as doves. we conducted field playback-recording experiments on the perch-coos of five dove species, including four native taiwan species (the spotted dove, spilopelia chinensis, the oriental turtle-dove, streptopelia orientalis, the red collared-dove, streptopelia tranquebarica, and the emerald dove, chalcophaps indica ... | 2016 | 27578359 |
| two new meitingsunes species (acari: syringophilidae) from indonesian doves (columbiformes: columbidae). | we describe two new quill mite species of the genus meitingsunes glowska and skoracki, 2010 (acari: prostigmata: syringophilidae) parasitizing columbiform birds (columbiformes: columbidae): m. chalcophaps sp. nov. collected from the emerald dove, chalcophaps indica (linnaeus) and m. turacoenas sp. nov. from the white-faced cuckoo dove, turacoena manadensis (quoy and gaimard) (type host) and the black cuckoo-dove, turacoena modesta (temminck). all host species were collected in indonesia. these r ... | 2016 | 27394880 |
| coi barcodes and phylogeny of doves (columbidae family). | cytochrome oxidase subunit i (coi) gene has been recognized as an authentic tool for species identification. besides its potential barcoding capacity, coi sequences have also been used for inferring the phylogeny. phylogenetic relationships among genera of columbidae (pigeons and doves family) have not been fully resolved because of scarce sampling of taxa and limited availability of sequence data. in this study, we have evaluated the efficiency of coi barcodes for species identification and phy ... | 2013 | 23544616 |
| comparative phylogeography and genetic structure of vanuatu birds: control region variation in a rail, a dove, and a passerine. | we examined variation in mitochondrial control region (domain i) sequences in three distantly related species of birds found on multiple islands in vanuatu: the buff-banded rail gallirallus philippensis (n=21, 433bp), the emerald dove chalcophaps indica (n=21, 513bp), and the streaked fantail rhipidura spilodera (n=17, 326bp). nucleotide and haplotype diversity were similar in all three species and showed little to no geographic structure within vanuatu. estimates of demographic parameters, test ... | 2007 | 17321760 |
| eimeria waiganiensis sp. n. from the green-winged ground dove (chalcophaps indica linnaeus) and the magnificent ground pigeon (otidiphaps nobilis gould) in papua new guinea. | eimeria waiganiensis sp. n. is described from green-winged ground dove (chalcophaps indica linnaeus) and the magnificent ground pigeon (otidiphaps nobilis gould) in papua new guinea. oocysts broadly ovoid, 22-25 by 19-23 micron (24 by 22 micron); l/w ratio 1.08-1.2 (1.1). oocyst surface smooth, wall light brown, 1.5 micron thick, 1-layered, the inner surface appearing pitted. micropyle (4-6 micron) and 2 to 4 polar granules present; oocyst residuum absent. sporocysts ovoid, 9.0-10.5 by 6.0-7.5 m ... | 1978 | 641674 |
