1. On the occurrence and diet of a migrating Woodchat Shrike (Lanius senator) in Slovakia

Author: Ján KOČÍ and Anton KRIŠTÍN
Subjects: shrikes, laniidae, migration stopover, foraging, central europe, Zoology, QL1-991
Abstract: Occurrence and food composition on migration stopover is described in the regionally extinct breeding bird, the Woodchat Shrike in Slovakia. All vagrant birds in the last 20 years were observed in May in agricultural landscape, similarly to most vagrants of the species observed elsewhere in Central Europe. In the food of the individual bird at the migration stopover in western Slovakia there were found mainly the field crickets (Gryllus campestris; 31%) and carabids of the genus Pterostichus (19%) and beetles (Scarabeidae; 18%). Food composition and history of occurrence of the species in Slovakia and central Europe is discussed.

2. Do males pay more? A male-biased predation of common lizard (Zootoca vivipara) by great grey shrike (Lanius excubitor).

Author: Antczak, Marcin, Ekner-Grzyb, Anna, Majláth, Igor, Majláthová, Viktoria, Bona, Martin, Hromada, Martin, and Tryjanowski, Piotr
Subjects: *VIVIPAROUS lizard, *LIZARD populations, *LIZARDS, *PREDATION, *MALES, *POPULATION dynamics
Abstract: Predation is one of the most important factors affecting biology, ecology and behaviour of the prey. We have studied predation of the common lizard (Zootoca vivipara) by the great grey shrike (Lanius excubitor) in farmland habitats in western Poland. Shrike caches were used as a source of information about preyed lizards. Shrikes hunt significantly more adult males than females, juveniles and sub-adults; the pattern was similar over all three study years. Male lizard had longer activity time than female; therefore, they seem to be under predation pressure for a longer time during breeding season. Capture and count transect data of common lizard populations living within and outside shrike territories showed significant seasonal differences: within shrike territories, there was lower proportion of males than females; moreover, in some territories, the number of males in the lizard population was negatively correlated with the number of males impaled by shrikes. Our findings suggest that in this particular predator-prey system, shrikes may be a strong selective force for lizards' population dynamics. Male-biased predation could be caused by differences in the behaviour of adult male and female lizards, namely longer activity of males and differences in space and refuge use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

3. Moult in the Loggerhead Shrike <italic>Lanius ludovicianus</italic> is influenced by sex, latitude and migration.

Author: Chabot, Amy A., Hobson, Keith A., Craig, Susan, and Lougheed, Stephen C.
Subjects: LOGGERHEAD shrike, MOLTING, SHRIKES, DEUTERIUM, STABLE isotopes, BIOLOGICAL evolution
Abstract: We investigated moult strategies in Loggerhead Shrikes by examining first prebasic or preformative moult patterns and by assessing the general location where individual feathers were grown using stable hydrogen isotope (δ2H) analysis. We tested the relative importance of factors known to impact moult timing and pattern, including age, sex, body size, food availability and migration. Migratory Shrikes showed evidence of suspended moult, in which feathers are moulted on both the breeding and the non‐breeding grounds with a suspension of moult during migration. Extent of moult was best explained by sex, longitude, migratory behaviour and breeding‐ground latitude. Male Hatch Year (HY) Shrikes replaced more feathers on the breeding grounds prior to migration than did HY females and moulted more extensively on the breeding grounds than did females. Non‐migratory HY Shrikes underwent a more extensive preformative moult than migratory HY Shrikes. Individuals in more southerly migratory populations moulted more extensively on the breeding grounds than did those breeding further north. Our data also indicate that individuals in the northeastern populations moulted more extensively on the breeding grounds than did those in the north and southwest. Our study underlines the complex structure and variation in moult possible within species, revealing surprising levels of differentiation between sexes and age cohorts, linked to environmental factors on the breeding grounds. Our study highlights the utility of an intrinsic marker, specifically δ2H analysis, to test hypotheses regarding the evolutionary and ecological forces driving moult. Although the methodology has not commonly been applied to this area of research, our results indicate that it can provide unprecedented insight into inter‐ and intra‐specific adaptive response to constraints, whereby individuals maximize fitness.

REMARKS. — Often included in L. meridionalis (Temminck, 1820), now considered monotypic (del Hoyo & Collar, 2016), L. e. elegans is the only subspecies certainly present in Burkina Faso as a scarce dry season visitor (Balanca & de Visscher 1997; Borrow & Demey 2001). The presence of L. e. leucopygos Erhenberg, 1833, the subspecies breeding in Mali and Niger, in the extreme north of the Burkina Faso is also possible following Borrow & Demey (2014). The taxonomy of the L. excubitor complex is very complicated and not fully resolved (Olsson et al. 2010), and the assessment of Burkina Faso subspecies needs revision., Published as part of Boano, Giovanni, Belemsobgo, Urbain, Silvano, Fabrizio, Hema, Emmanuel M., Belemsobgo, Aristide, Dimobe, Kangbéni & Pavia, Marco, 2022, An annotated checklist of the birds of Burkina Faso, pp. 27-107 in Zoosystema 44 (2) on page 75, DOI: 10.5252/zoosystema2022v44a2, http://zenodo.org/record/5999691, {"references":["DOWSETT R.

20. Saving the best for last: Differential usage of impaled prey by red-backed shrike (Lanius collurio) during the breeding season.

Author: Morelli, Federico, Bussière, Raphaël, Goławski, Artur, Tryjanowski, Piotr, and Yosef, Reuven
Subjects: *RED-backed shrike, *SEXUAL selection, *ANIMAL social behavior, *BIRD breeding, *PREDATION, *HABITATS, *BIRDS
Abstract: We compared the prey composition of the red-backed shrike’s ( Lanius collurio ) larders in agricultural habitats in Italy, France and Poland. This species exhibits the behaviour of impaling prey in larders, a behaviour attributed not only to storing food, but also as a social indication for sexual selection and/or demarcation of territories. A total of 426 impaled items were identified in 244 larders. Most common prey were identified for each country: Insecta (Hymenoptera) in Italy, Amphibia, Insecta (Diptera) and Clitellata in Poland, and Insecta (Orthoptera, Lepidoptera) in France. We found no relationship between type of prey impaled and height of impalement, however, we noted a negative relationship between the height of impalement and the distance to the nearest road. Furthermore, impaled toxic prey were found in all three countries, strengthening the possibility that prey are exposed to expedite the degradation of toxins or used as a social signal. Our results showed that the average weight of impaled prey was greater during the last reproductive stage (hatching and feeding young), providing evidence of differential usage of impaled prey during the breeding season. We therefore hypothesize that larger animals provide more energy, then vertebrates are preferred to invertebrates, especially when parents are feeding their nestlings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

21. Characterization of 17 microsatellite loci for use in population genetic and mating system studies of the endangered North American passerine, loggerhead shrike ( Lanius ludovicianus).

Author: Coxon, Angela, Chabot, Amy, Lougheed, Stephen, Dávila, José, and White, Bradley
Abstract: Seventeen polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers were isolated from the loggerhead shrike ( Lanius ludovicianus) using individuals from two geographically distinct populations (Ontario and mainland California). The number of alleles per locus ranged from 6 to 20 and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.639 to 0.902. All loci were heterozygous and private alleles were found for most. Combined non-exclusion probability of identity ranged from 0.047 to 0.122 in the Ontario population and 0.011-0.060 in the California population. Our results indicate that these markers will be useful for studies of genetic population structure, parentage and pedigree analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

23. Contribution on the Status and Distribution of Shrike Species in South-Eastern Anatolia, Turkey.

Author: Karakaş, Recep
Abstract: The article describes a study which examined the distribution and status of several shrike species in South-eastern Anatolia, Turkey. Shrikes are passerine birds belonging to the Laniidae family. The species of shrike birds studied are the Lanius collurio, L. senator, L. minor and L. nubicus. L. minor was observed to be a passage migrant while the other shrike species are summer visitors that regularly breed in the South-Eastern Anatolia region. The shrike and other bird species are being threatened by expanding agricultural production system under the South-east Anatolia Project (GAP).

24. Nestling coloration is adjusted to parent visual performance in altricial birds irrespective of assumptions on vision system for Laniidae and owls, a reply to Renoult et al.

Author: AVILÉS, J. M. and SOLER, J. J.
Subjects: *BABY birds, *BIRD watching, *OWLS, *ANIMAL young, *PHYLOGENY
Abstract: We have recently published support to the hypothesis that visual systems of parents could affect nestling detectability and, consequently, influences the evolution of nestling colour designs in altricial birds. We provided comparative evidence of an adjustment of nestling colour designs to the visual system of parents that we have found in a comparative study on 22 altricial bird species. In this issue, however, Renoult et al. ( J. Evol. Biol., 2009 ) question some of the assumptions and statistical approaches in our study. Their argumentation relied on two major points: (1) an incorrect assignment of vision system to four out of 22 sampled species in our study; and (2) the use of an incorrect approach for phylogenetic correction of the predicted associations. Here, we discuss in detail re-assignation of vision systems in that study and propose alternative interpretation for current knowledge on spectrophotometric data of avian pigments. We reanalysed the data by using phylogenetic generalized least squares analyses that account for the alluded limitations of phylogenetically independent contrasts and, in accordance with the hypothesis, confirmed a significant influence of parental visual system on gape coloration. Our results proved to be robust to the assumptions on visual system evolution for Laniidae and nocturnal owls that Renoult et al. ( J. Evol. Biol., 2009 ) study suggested may have flawed our early findings. Thus, the hypothesis that selection has resulted in increased detectability of nestling by adjusting gape coloration to parental visual systems is currently supported by our comparative data.

25. Impaling in true shrikes (Laniidae): A behavioral and ontogenetic perspective

Author: Yosef, Reuven and Pinshow, Berry
Subjects: *PASSERIFORMES, *DEVELOPMENTAL biology, *CHEMICAL terrorism, *FEMALES
Abstract: Abstract: The impaling of prey is a behavioral trait restricted to the true shrikes (Laniidae). Here, we suggest the ontogeny of this behavior. We believe impaling originated from wedging behavior that occurs among several other groups of birds, including corvids. Accidental impaling during wedging was likely the behavioral precursor of purposeful impaling. Fidelity to impaling sites lead to the creation of caches, which were eventually used by females for male evaluation. Caching allowed males to increase their fitness by using the caches as a display to attract potential mates. Further, caching is used by shrikes to demarcate territories, store food for inclement weather or periods of stress in the breeding cycle, divide labor between the breeding pair, and for “aging” while deterrent chemicals in prey decompose.

Abstract: The chewing lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Amblycera and Ischnocera) of Mexico have been little studied and many publications include isolated records. This paper summarizes current knowledge of chewing lice recorded from Mexico resulting from an exhaustive search of the literature published from 1866 to 2017. We found 342 louse species associated with 206 bird and 28 mammal species. As a result, we provide a checklist of the chewing lice recorded from Mexico, including a host-parasite list and their geographical distribution within the country.

Subjects: *MITOCHONDRIAL RNA, *GENOMES, *LANIUS, *GENETIC code, *AMINO acids, *RIBOSOMAL RNA genetics, *TRANSFER RNA
Abstract: The complete Grey-backed Shrike mitochondrial genome has been sequenced to be 16,820 bp in length, consisting of 37 encode genes: 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes. In addition, a single control region was also observed. Compared with other reported Passeriformes mtgenome sequences, three bases CAA were detected at the end of Lanius tephronotus cox2 gene with the downstream adjacent base T. The first base of CAA probably occurred C to U transcript editing event resulting in a normal stop codon UAA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

31. Overwinterende Klapeksters in Nederland: telperikelen, aantallen en verspreiding

Abstract: Overwinterende Klapeksters, vaak prominent zittend in een boomtop in halfopen landschap, lijken eenvoudig in kaart te brengen. In de praktijk blijkt het lastiger dan verwacht. Dit aspect kreeg speciale aandacht bij het uitwerken van landelijke tellingen, bedoeld om het aantal overwinteraars in ons land te becijferen. De aantallen vertonen opmerkelijke fluctuaties per winter, maar nemen recent weer toe na een eerdere afname. Ze lijken vooral de ontwikkelingen in de Scandinavische broedgebieden te weerspiegelen.

Abstract: In de bijna kleurloze omgeving van een winters heideveld licht de Klapekster op als een medaille op de borst van een Russische oorlogsveteraan, zo beschreef Koos van Zomeren het onlangs. Om vergrassing en dichtgroeien van die heidevelden tegen te gaan zijn in de afgelopen decennia steeds meer terreinen in begrazing genomen. Een bijkomend voordeel van begrazing zou de toename van grote insecten zijn, die als voedselbron kunnen dienen voor andere dieren. Hebben Klapeksters hier ook van weten te profiteren? Twaalf jaar intensief kleurringonderzoek werpt een licht op de relatie tussen begrazing en de conditie en plaatstrouw van overwinterende Klapeksters in Nederland.

Abstract: Seventeen polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers were isolated from the loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) using individuals from two geographically distinct populations (Ontario and mainland California). The number of alleles per locus ranged from 6 to 20 and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.639 to 0.902. All loci were heterozygous and private alleles were found for most. Combined non-exclusion probability of identity ranged from 0.047 to 0.122 in the Ontario population and 0.011-0.060 in the California population. Our results indicate that these markers will be useful for studies of genetic population structure, parentage and pedigree analysis., This study was funded by the United States Navy Region Southwest (grant to BW) and Environment Canada (Canadian Wildlife Service—Ontario Region) (grant to SCL) and the Natural Sciences and Research Council of Canada (grant to SCL).

Abstract: Lanius tigrinus Locality. – Malaysia: Pasoh, 1998; Singapore: Nee Soon, 1998. Description.– Available blood films were faded. The infected erythrocytes are distorted with a displaced laterally or distally nucleus. They contain either a schizont, with 5–12 nuclei, or one to two usually rounded gametocytes (4.8 ± 1.2 × 3.44 ± 1.07; range 3.3–5.94 × 2.2–5.06) with a few (one to five), sometimes aggregated coarse pigment granules, and outlines of one or two vacuoles. The pigment granules in some trophozoites are aggregated, or encircle the vacuole; the faded state of the stain obscures other details. Infected erythrocytes are 12.7 ± 0.91 × 7.1 ± 0.91 with 5.72 ± 0.39 × 2.3 ± 0.30 nuclei. Remarks. – Laird (1997) lists Lanius spp. among the commonest hosts of Pla. (H.) matutinum (Huff, 1937) Coradetti et al., 1960 in SE Asia. Originally isolated from Turdus migratorius in North America, most of the descriptions were made from infections in experimental hosts. The redescription (Corradetti et al., 1960) from the European host, Turdus iliacus, as cited by Laird, also incorporates data from experimental hosts. Neither the faded state of our specimens, nor Laird’s description and illustrations, including of the infection from Lan. cristatus, can provide an unambiguous identification of the Plasmodium species found., Published as part of Paperna, Ilan, Keong, Malcolm Soh Chu & May, Charlotte Yap Aye, 2008, Haemosporozoan Parasites Found In Birds In Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, Sarawak And Java, pp. 211-243 in Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 56 (2) on page 223, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5340123, {"references":["Laird, M., 1997.

Abstract: Seventeen polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers were isolated from the loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) using individuals from two geographically distinct populations (Ontario and mainland California). The number of alleles per locus ranged from 6 to 20 and expected heterozygosity varied from 0.639 to 0.902. All loci were heterozygous and private alleles were found for most. Combined non-exclusion probability of identity ranged from 0.047 to 0.122 in the Ontario population and 0.011-0.060 in the California population. Our results indicate that these markers will be useful for studies of genetic population structure, parentage and pedigree analysis.

39. The taxonomic status of Nicator: Evidence from feather protein electrophoresis

Author: Hanotte, O., Knox, A.G. A.G., Prigogine, Alexandre, Hanotte, O., Knox, A.G. A.G., and Prigogine, Alexandre
Abstract: Electrophoresis of soluble feather proteins was used to investigate the controversial taxonomic status of the genus Nicator. Nicator was compared to species in four genera of Pycnonotidae and two sub-families of Laniidae. Electrophoretic similarity values were calculated and then transformed to Nei D distances. Dendrograms were constructed using the Fitch-Margoliash, unweighted pair-group, Farris and modified Farris algorithms. The results clearly show the affinities of Nicator are with Pycnonotidae and not with the Laniidae. The modified Farris tree gave the best fit. Within the Pycnonotidae, our data do not support a close relationship between Pycnonotus and Andropadus, as had been previously suggested. © 1987., SCOPUS: ar.j, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

40. MIGRATORY ANIMAL PATHOLOGICAL SURVEY.

Author: APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CORP OF THAILAND BANGKOK, McClure,H. Elliott, APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CORP OF THAILAND BANGKOK, and McClure,H. Elliott
Abstract: A summary is given of the number of birds banded by MAPS field teams in 1969, listing 119,653 birds of 725 species that were ringed. More than 2,600 recoveries of 200 species which have been received and the migration routes of House Swallow, Ducks and Ardeids in Eastern Asia, as suggested by ring recoveries, are discussed. Ectoparasite collections from more than 700 species of birds are being identified by taxonomists and 505 genera and species of parasites are listed.

41. MIGRATORY ANIMAL PATHOLOGICAL SURVEY.

Author: APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CORP OF THAILAND BANGKOK, McClure,H. Elliott, APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH CORP OF THAILAND BANGKOK, and McClure,H. Elliott
Abstract: Summaries are given from the reports submitted by the responsible investigators of thirteen research teams in Eastern and Southeastern Asia. These involve discussions of bird migration and distribution in each area with special reference to House Swallows, Brown Shrikes and Ardeids and to migration across mountain ranges. The numbers of birds banded in 1968 are listed. This was 150,000 birds of 798 species bringing the total for the five years of this work to 820,000 birds of 1,060 species. The recovery information is summarized for 180 species based upon 1,762 recovery records. The ectoparasites identified to date from 739 species of birds listing 259 species are discussed. A discussion is given of blood parasitism by Haematozoa, Microfilaria, and Trypanosoma among more than 700 species of birds which have been examined. (Author)
