ADDITIONAL RECORD OF THE BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER IN PUERTO RICO, WITH SOME OBSERVATIONS ON FORAGING BEHAVIOR

Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) Science Article 3 abstract The Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) ranges from eastern Canada to Colombia,including the West Indies where it is uncommon and restricted to the Greater Antilles (Clements 1978, Faarborgh & Terborgh 1980). The species is considered a rare winter migrant to the islands, occurring from mid September […]

EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE FOR INTRINSIC MICROHABITAT PREFERENCES IN THE BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER

Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) Science Article 2 abstract Black-throated Green Warblers (Dendroica virens) use coniferous vegetation as foraging and perching substrates at coastal sites in Maine and predominantly deciduous vegetation at inland sites in interior New Hampshire, despite the availability of both substrates. I tested the hypothesis that these habitat use patterns result from […]

SPATIAL VARIATION IN FORAGING OF THE BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER ALONG THE SHORELINE OF NORTHERN LAKE HURON

Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) Science Article 1 abstract The Great Lakes strongly influence local climate, vegetation, and animal communities,all of which are important to both migrating and breeding birds. This influencecan be considerable during springtime in nearshore habitats, as onshore winds depress airtemperatures, delaying development of shoreline vegetation relative to inland areas. Thesedevelopmental differences […]

NONBREEDING HABITAT SELECTION AND FORAGING BEHAVIOR OF THE BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLERCOMPLEX IN SOUTHEASTERN MEXICO

Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) Science Article 4 abstract We studied the ecological distribution and foraging behavior of three speciesin the Black-throated Green Warbler (Dendroica virens) species group in the Eastern Highlandsof Chiapas, Mexico. The three species, Black-throated Green, Hermit (D. occidentalis)and Townsend’s (D. townsendi) Warblers are largely allopatric on the breeding grounds andvariably sympatric […]
