Milchev, Boyan published the artcileDiet of Barn Owl Tyto alba in central South Bulgaria as influenced by landscape structure, Category: imidazoles-derivatives, the main research area is diet Barn Owl landscape feeding ecol central South Bulgaria.
This study of the diet of Barn Owl Tyto alba analyzed pellets containing 18,810 prey specimens. Small mammals (98.2% by number, 97.5% by biomass) dominated, while birds, reptiles, amphibians, and insects constituted a negligible portion of the diet (1.8% by number, 2.5% by biomass). Voles (Microtus spp.) were the most numerous prey (35.3 ± 14.4%, range 14.6%-67.1%) in 9 localities (69.2%, n = 13 individually studied localities) and dominated the biomass in all diets (51.4 ± 14.1%, range 27.4%-78.2%). The lesser white-toothed shrew (Crocidura suaveolens) (20.8 ± 7.6%, range 7.3%-32.8%) was the most frequent prey in the other 4 localities (30.8%). The breeding localities with more similar proportions of habitats in their hunting territories had significantly higher diet overlaps (r = 0.336, P < 0.01). The amount of wetlands and the indexes of habitat heterogeneity and topog. relief among the landscape characteristics of the hunting territories significantly influenced diet composition according to redundancy anal. Larger areas of wetlands correlated with higher predation on wetland mammal species, as well as the European pine vole (Microtus subterraneus) and white-toothed shrews, and thus with broader food niche breadth. Turkish Journal of Zoology published new progress about Amphibia. 274-78-2 belongs to class imidazoles-derivatives, name is Imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine, and the molecular formula is C6H5N3, Category: imidazoles-derivatives.
