Comparing multiple criteria for species identification in two recently diverged seabirds. by Teresa Militão, Elena Gómez-Díaz, Antigoni Kaliontzopoulou, Jacob González-Solís

“…In this study we used multiple criteria, namely plumage colouration, biometric measurements, geometric morphometrics, stable isotopes analysis (SIA) and genetics (mtDNA), to identify the species of 107 bycatch birds from two closely related seabird species, the Balearic (Puffinus mauretanicus) and Yelkouan (P. yelkouan) shearwaters. …”

A path forward in the investigation of seabird strandings attributed to light attraction by Taylor Marie Brown, Sabina I. Wilhelm, Gabriela F. Mastromonaco, Gary Burness

“…Abstract A variety of anthropogenic threats cause mortality and population declines of procellariiform seabirds. Globally, fledglings of many colonial procellariiforms become stranded in towns and cities during their first flights from the nest, which occur at night. …”

Post-foraging in-colony behaviour of a central-place foraging seabird by Katarzyna Wojczulanis-Jakubas, Antoine Grissot, Marion Devogel, Lauraleen Altmeyer, Tessa Fuijisaki, Dariusz Jakubas, Dorota Kidawa, Nina Karnovsky

“…In this study, we examined time allocation into three post-foraging activities (entering the nest with food, nest attendance, and colony attendance) in a small seabird species, the little auk (Alle alle). Since little auks alternate foraging trips of different duration (short and long) and purpose (offspring feeding and primarily self-feeding, respectively) we expected that duration of the following up in-colony activities would also vary, being longer after a long absence in the colony (because of greater need of reassessment of the current predation pressure and social interactions in the colony, and re-establishing the bond with the offspring and/or partner and/or neighbours after longer absence). …”
