Ecological determinants of interactions as key when planning pollinator-friendly urban greening: a plant-hummingbird network example
Urban green spaces may function as habitats for pollinators. However, it is poorly
understood how distinct ecological drivers determine the interactions between pollinator and …

Citizen science data reveal altitudinal movement and seasonal ecosystem use by hummingbirds in the Andes Mountains
Ensuring connectivity is crucial to protect landscapes but it requires knowledge about how
animals use ecosystems throughout the year. However, animal movements remain largely …

Implications of dominance hierarchy on hummingbird-plant interactions in a temperate forest in Northwestern Mexico
The structuring of plant-hummingbird networks can be explained by multiple factors,
including species abundance (ie., the neutrality hypothesis), matching of bill and flower …

Impacts of Supplemental Feeding on Sunbird-Pollination Systems in Young Fynbos Varies with Floral Abundance
Supplementary sugar-water feeding offers nectarivorous birds a source of spatially
concentrated food, as opposed to the dispersed food available in flowers. This could impact …

Hummingbird community structure and nectar resources modulate the response of interspecific competition to forest conversion
On-going land-use change has profound impacts on biodiversity by filtering species that
cannot survive in disturbed landscapes and potentially altering biotic interactions. In …

Phenotype predicts interspecific dominance hierarchies in a cloud‐forest hummingbird guild
Competition over resources often leads to intra‐and interspecific interactions, which can be
detrimental to the individuals involved. Thus, natural selection should favor communication …

Season and sugar concentration affect bird behaviour at urban sugar-water feeders
Sugar-water bird feeding in residential backyards is increasingly popular, but its effects on
wildlife are poorly understood. One concern is whether it results in maladaptive behaviour …

On the occurrence of frugivorous behavior by hummingbirds across the Americas
CCC Missagia, LM Vallejos, JM Almeida… - Ornithology Research, 2025 - Springer
Hummingbirds primarily feed on floral nectar, making them important pollinators. However,
we documented three cases of frugivory by hummingbirds, two in Brazil and the other in …
