Phylogenetic analysis of ecological and morphological diversification in Hispaniolan trunk‐ground anoles (Anolis cybotes group)
(2003)
Anolis lizards in the Greater Antilles partition the structural microhabitats available at a given site into four to six distinct categories. Most microhabitat specialists, or ecomorphs, have evolved only once on each ...
Linking breeding and wintering grounds of Bicknell's Thrushes using stable isotope analyses of feathers
(2001)
Previous studies have shown that natural abundance of deuterium (D), and to a lesser extent, in feathers of migrant songbirds in North America can be used to infer geographic origins of molt. We used that approach to ...
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 ...
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 ...
A new atlantasellid isopod (Asellota: Aselloidea) from the flooded coastal karst of the Dominican Republic (Hispaniola) : evidence for an exopod on a thoracic limb and biogeographical implications
(2001)
A new representative of the thus far monotypic, Bermudan aselloid family Atlantasellidae is described from the freshwater layers of two coastal sinkholes on the south-west Dominican Republic, Hispaniola. Atlantasellus ...
Potential impacts of climate change on biodiversity in Central America, Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
(2008)
The overall objective of the current study is to assess the potential impacts of climate change on the biodiversity of Belize, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, and ...
Avian research, monitoring, and conservation in the Dominican Republic
(2004)
Abstract: I report on some of the recent and current research efforts in the Dominican Republic, including those of Joseph Wunderle on coffee plantations, Steven Latta on migratory birds, and Christopher Rimmer on Bicknell's ...
Predation of a Golden Swallow (Tachycineta euchrysea) nest by the Indian mongoose (Herpestes javanicus) in the Sierra de Bahoruco, Dominican Republic
(2006)
Abstract: Golden Swallows (Tachycineta euchrysea) have recently been observed nesting on or near the ground. In May 2004 I observed an introduced Indian mongoose (Herpestes javanicus) enter a recently depredated Golden ...
Avian diversity, abundance, and conservation status in the Macaya Biosphere Reserve of Haiti
(2005)
[English] We surveyed the montane forest bird community at two sites in the Macaya Biosphere Reserve, Haiti during 7 to 14 February 2004. We recorded 37 species of birds among 234 mist-net captures, 121 point count ...
Especies de equinodermos recientes (Echinodermata : crinoidea: asteroidea: ophiuroidea: echinoidea y holothuroidea) conocidas para la Hispaniola
(2004)
El presente trabajo resume y actualiza el conocimiento de la biodiversidad de los equinodermos recientes de la Isla Hispaniola, ofreciendo una lista con 154 especies, divididas en 23 especies de crinoidea, 33 de asteroidea, ...
