A hierarchical analysis of nesting and foraging habitat for the conservation of the Hispaniolan White-winged crossbill (Loxia leucoptera megaplaga)
(2000)Little is known about habitat use by the endemic Hispaniolan White-winged crossbill (Loxia leucoptera megaplaga), in part because of its small population size and wandering tendencies; before this study only a single nest ... -
A new nematode of the genus Diplotriaena from a Hispaniolan woodpecker
(1934)The species of nematode described in this paper was collected from the body cavity of a Hispaniolan woodpecker killed near Santa Barbara de Samaná, Dominican Republic, by E. W. Price. -
A new review of the status of the Caribbean Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) in the Dominican Republic and Haiti
(2010)The Caribbean Flamingo Phoenicopterus ruber is a locally common resident of Hispaniola withnumbers augmented significantly by seasonal visitors. We review the existing literature and provide newdata on the status of the ... -
A new subspecies of Turdus swalesi (Aves, Passeriformes, Muscicapidae) from the Dominican Republic
(1986)A new subspecies, Turdus swalesi dodae. is described from the Sierra de Neiba and Cordillera Central of the Dominican Republic. The arid Cul-de-Sac Valle de Neiba depression forms a barrier between T. s. swalesi of the ... -
A partial list of birds observed in Haiti and the Dominican Republic
(1934)The birds here listed are some of those noted on a limnological expedition to the island, lasting from February 5 to March 15, 1933. As will be observed, the greater part of the birds mentioned are aquatic, since they were ... -
A preliminary report of ongoing research of the ecology of Black-capped Petrel (Pterodroma hasitata) in Sierra de Bahoruco, Dominican Republic – I: GPS tracking of breeding adults
(2019)In the spring of 2018, we studied the foraging ecology of the Black-capped Petrel. The goal of this project was to gather fine-scale data on individual movements of Black-capped Petrels breeding in the Sierra de Bahoruco, ... -
A rare observation of White-collared Swift (Streptoprocne zonaris) breeding activity on Hispaniola
(2018)Abstract: The White-collared Swift (Streptoprocne zonaris) has long been considered a common resident of Hispaniola. However, its breeding status on the island is poorly documented, and we are aware of only three previously ... -
A review of records of the Black-capped Petrel Pterodroma hasitata in the Caribbean Sea
(2019)The Black-capped Petrel Pterodroma hasitata is a pelagic seabird with a dangerously small population size. Remaining breeding sites are threatened by habitat loss, introduced predators, and direct harvesting. The species ... -
A winter distribution model for Bicknell’s Thrush (Catharus bicknelli), a conservation tool for a threatened migratory songbird
(2013)Conservation planning and implementation require identifying pertinent habitats and locations where protection and management may improve viability of targeted species. The winter range of Bicknell’s Thrush (Catharus ... -
Actividades de conservación de la avifauna en la República Dominicana en 1997
(1997)Breve nota publicada sobre programas y acciones para la conservación de las aves en la República Dominicana. -
Additional notes on the birds of Haiti and the Dominican Republic
(1933)In continuation of biological studies in Hispaniola under the Smithsonian Institution, we were engaged in field investigations in Haiti and the Dominican Republic in the spring of 1931, being oc cupied principally with ... -
Additional notes on the wintering status of Swainson's Warbler in the Dominican Republic
(2001)[English] We report the third and fourth records of Swainson’s Warbler (Limnothlypis swainsonii) from Hispaniola. All four records have involved mist-netted birds in montane broadleaf forests of Sierra de Bahoruco in the ... -
Amazona ventralis, Hispaniolan Amazon

Ancient differentiation in the single-island avian radiation of endemic Hispaniolan chat-tanagers (Aves: Calyptophilus)
(2007)The simple geographic structure of island systems often makes them tractable for studies of the patterns and processes of biological diversification. The Calyptophilus chat-tanagers of Hispaniola are of general evolutionary ... -
Apparent survival of a range-restricted montane forest bird species is influenced by weather throughout the annual cycle
(2019)[English] To conserve small and fragmented populations, we need an understanding of their population dynamics. With a global population estimate of < 120,000, Bicknell’s Thrush (Catharus bicknelli) is considered one of the ... -
Aspectos del comportamiento de forrajeo de la cigüita del río Parkesia motacilla (Aves: Passeriformes: Parulidae) en época no reproductiva
(2011)[Español] Se estudió el comportamiento de forrajeo de Parkesia motacilla (Parulidae) durante los meses septiembre-noviembre y enero-marzo (2008-2009) en una localidad de la provincia Duarte, en el noreste de República ... -
Assessing conservation status of resident and migrant birds on Hispaniola with mist-netting
(2016)We analyzed temporal trends in mist-net capture rates of resident (n = 8) and overwintering Nearctic-Neotropical migrant (n = 3) bird species at two sites in montane broadleaf forest of the Sierra de Bahoruco, Dominican ... -
Avian community characteristics and demographics reveal how conservation value of regenerating tropical dry forest changes with forest age
(2018)Expansion of secondary forests following the abandonment of agriculture may have important implications for bird conservation, but few studies have examined the dynamics of this process. We studied bird use of a chronosequence ... -
Avian conservation planning in the Caribbean : experience and recommendations from the Dominican Republic
(2005)The Dominican Republic, on the island of Hispaniola, supports more bird species than any other Caribbean country except Cuba. More than 300 species of birds have been recorded in the country, including 285 native residents ...
