  • Hybridization and Extinction in a Recent Passer Sparrow Zone
    Hybridization and extinction in a recent Passer sparrow zone Vitalii Lichman Master of Science Thesis Department of Biosciences Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences University of Oslo 01.11.2018 © Vitalii Lichman 2018 Hybridization and extinction in a recent Passer sparrow zone Vitalii Lichman http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo Abstract The avifauna of Cape Verde archipelago is represented by three species within the Passer genus. Due to its distant localization from the continent and its variety of landscapes, this group of islands serves as objects of interest for studies in the sphere of evolutionary biology. From the beginning of the age of naturalistic explorations in the middle of 19th century, only few detailed ornithological expeditions were conducted until recently. In this connection, nowadays we have at our disposal only superficial information concerning the disposition of population structure and interspecific interactions within bird species, particularly sparrows. Technical progress and development of technologies in the field of molecular biology giving us an opportunity to investigate these processes more closely. This study clarifies phylogenetic relationships between 3 Passer species: 2 invasive (P. domesticus and P. hispaniolensis) and 1 endemic (P. Iagoensis). I also revealed a pronounced presence of P. hispaniolensis ancestry in P. domesticus genome that indicates existence of recent hybridization in the range of their contact, and supporting the notion that these species are prone to interspecific breeding elsewhere. I also found that P. Iagoensis has relatively high genome divergence - wide fixation index, that suggests absence of interbreeding between endemic and any of the invasive species. This is the first study of sparrows on the Cape Verde based on genetics and bioinformatics that presents explicit results on population structure Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisors Glenn-Peter Sætre and Mark Ravinet for all of their guidance.

Throughout history sparrows have been considered the harbinger of good or bad luck. They are referred to in many works of ancient literature and religious texts around the world. The ancient Egyptians used the sparrow symbol in their hieroglyphs to express evil tidings, the ancient Greeks associated it with Aphrodite, the goddess of love as a lustful messenger, and Jesus used sparrows as an example of divine providence in the Gospel of Matthew.

  • AERC Wplist July 2015
    AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

For Those Who Want to Find Out More 1. Life by Four Rivers – Early Days by the Tame, Ystwyth, Severn, & Wye Introduction This story is about how I came from the sootiest, most industrial of industrial areas to spend the majority of my life in one of the greenest, most rural and least populated parts of England and Wales. To understand the journey, you must understand where I came from, what has influenced and motivated me, and how, at times, a few rivers have, serendipitously, shaped the chapters of my life. This is the world as seen through the eyes of a boy growing up in the Blackcountry in the early post-war years, and why, more than half a century later, it is clear that you can take a man out of the Blackcountry but you cannot take the Blackcountry out of a man. That I am a genuine Blackcountryman is confirmed, in my view, by my deep local roots which can be traced back in Wednesbury to Edward Slater in 1626 and probably, with a change of spelling, to John Sclator in 1554.

Note that some fields concerning aspects of Part 3, the Ecological Character Description of the RIS (tinted in purple), are not expected to be completed as part of a standard RIS, but are included for completeness so as to provide the requested consistency between the RIS and the format of a ‘full’ Ecological Character Description, as adopted in Resolution X.15 (2008). If a Contracting Party does have information available that is relevant to these fields (for example from a national format Ecological Character Description) it may, if it wishes to, include information in these additional fields. 1 - Summary Summary The Lagoas de Pedro Badejo wetland is made up of two coastal lagoons on the estuary of two watercourses and the entire basin of one of the watercourses as far as the Poilão reservoir. The lagoons represent an environment of high ecological value for birds, since they contain fresh or slightly brackish water. Since it was flooded, this reservoir has also become an exceptional area for migratory waterbirds and birds endemic to Cape Verde such as the Cape Verde heron (Ardea bournei ) and the Cape Verde swamp-warbler (Acrocephalus brevipennis).

  • Passer Domesticus) in Southern Africa
    THE EVOLUTION OF THE HOUSE SPARROW (PASSER DOMESTICUS) IN SOUTHERN AFRICA by AUDREY OTTILIA MSIMANGA Submitted in fulfillment ofthe academic Requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Department ofLife and Environmental Sciences, University ofNatal Durban April 2001 ii ABSTRACT The house sparrow, Passer domesticus, is one of the most successful invading bird species in the world. It was introduced to southern Africa around 1900 and has since spread through the region. Its dispersal was characterised by an initial slow phase followed by a rapid increase in the rate ofspread. Following 50 years ofslow spread, the rate ofdispersal accelerated to over 80 km/year. The initial slow rate can be attributed to an Allee effect, defined as "a disproportionate reduction in reproduction below a threshold population density due to reduced probability of finding a mate". The rapid phase involved a combination of long-range jumps (leap-frogging dispersal) and diffusive movement over short distances. Dispersal was significantly faster along railway lines. Introduction of the house sparrow, Passer domesticus, to southern Africa involved unknown numbers of both the domesticus race of Europe and indicus of Asia, resulting in the establishment of a genetically diverse founder population along coastal South Africa. The birds have undergone significant differentiation since introduction about 100 years ago. Significant sexual size dimorphism was detected among southern African house sparrows, especially in flight structures. Males were larger than females in all characters except tarsus and claw length. Overall body size variation was clinaly ordered with a general increase in size with latitude in conformity with Bergmann's rule.
