Proctophyllodes huitzilopochtlii Atyeo & Braasch 1966 (Acariformes: Astigmata: Proctophyllodidae), a feather mite, was found on feathers collected from five hummingbird species in California. This mite has not been previously documented on feathers from Anna's (Calypte anna [Lesson 1829]) or Black-chinned (Archilochus alexandri [Bourcier & Mulsant 1846]) Hummingbirds. A total of 753 hummingbird...

Melanin is the most pervasive and widespread pigment in living organisms and creates a broad range of black, brown and grey colors. Melanin possesses an intriguing set of physical and chemical properties including broadband monotonic absorbance, extremely low radiative quantum yield, and surprising condensed-phase electrical and photoconductive properties. This has led to the suggestion that me...

We tested the risk-sensitive foraging preferences of wild rufous hummingbirds, Selasphorus rufus, with three types of artificial flowers. All three flower types provided the same mean volume of 30 µl of sucrose, but differed in terms of variability of the reward: constant, low variance and high variance. In trinary comparisons, subjects preferred the low-variance reward over the constant reward...

Three experiments were designed to investigate whether corticosterone (CORT), known to have a role in restoration of energy homeostasis, regulates nocturnal torpor, an energy conservation state used by some small mammals and birds to offset environmental challenges to energy balance. In two experiments, one during autumn migration and one during early spring molt, captive rufous hummingbirds (S...
