Inferring the decision rules that drive co-foraging affiliations in wild mixed-species parrot groups

Vanessa Ferdinand et al.

Summary: Animals gather in mixed-species aggregations or groups, but it is unclear how much information they use to make decisions about joining these groups. This study used data on 12 parrot species to examine the information used by each species to make decisions about which mixed-species aggregations to participate in. The results showed that species primarily used a simpler lower-category method to choose which individuals to associate with, rather than relying on species-level information. The study also found that the decision-making models varied across species and included different types of information.

Mixed-species bird flocks re-assemble interspecific associations across an elevational gradient

Yong Shen et al.

Summary: Understanding how non-trophic social systems respond to environmental gradients remains a challenge in animal ecology. This study investigated the effects of elevation on community assemblages and interspecific interactions in mixed-species bird flocks. The results showed that elevation primarily influenced flocks by reassembling interspecific associations rather than modifying community composition. Flock networks at higher elevations had stronger interspecific associations, enhanced network connectivity, and fewer subnetworks compared to low elevations. The associations between similar species weakened with elevation, while connections between dissimilar and/or random species remained unchanged or strengthened. The overall pattern shifted from modular networks at low elevations to a more open, random system at higher elevations. This rewiring of interspecific networks across elevational gradients enhances network stability and resiliency, making mixed-species flocks less vulnerable to local extinctions caused by harsh environments.

Extensive hybridization reveals multiple coloration genes underlying a complex plumage phenotype

Summary: This study identified the genetic basis of six distinct plumage patches in North American woodpeckers, revealing that color differences could be created through selection acting on novel combinations of coloration genes.
