Reproductive success of the threatened San Clemente Bell's Sparrow in recovering habitats is similar to success in historical habitat
<p>The San Clemente Bell's Sparrow <i>Artemisiospiza belli clementeae</i> is a federally threatened subspecies endemic to San Clemente Island, California. Previous research suggested dependence on boxthorn (<i>Lycium californicum</i>) as breeding habitat and nesting substrate; however, this conclusion was based on data collected when introduced feral ungulates had severely degraded the soil and vegetation cover. Since removal of the ungulates, native vegetation has gradually increased and the San Clemente Bell's Sparrows have expanded into areas where habitat had been unsuitable. To explore how Bell's Sparrows use these areas, we examined reproductive metrics associated with habitat covariates gathered at 214 nest sites used by Bell's Sparrows from 2014 ̶ 2016. We found that nest success in boxthorn habitat, previously considered an essential habitat for Bell's Sparrow nesting, was similar to success in alternative habitat types. Our findings contradict previous conclusions that Bell's Sparrows were boxthorn-dependent. We believe this previously documented relationship was likely due to the lack of available alternative nesting habitat following years of feral ungulate degradation, and Bell's Sparrows now reproduce in multiple habitat types and throughout most of San Clemente Island. Furthermore, our findings illustrate the importance of long-term monitoring and corresponding adaptive management when monitoring species in changing and recovering landscapes.The San Clemente Bell's Sparrow <i>Artemisiospiza belli clementeae</i> is a federally threatened subspecies endemic to San Clemente Island, California.

Data from: Are house sparrow populations limited by the lack of cavities in urbanized landscapes? an experimental test.
Current urban policies are associated with deep changes in urban structures, which may impoverish urban biodiversity. A major concern is the disappearance of nesting sites for wild vertebrate species living in urban areas. New urban structures without any cracks or cavities may especially preclude cavity nesters from breeding in cities and they may cause population declines. In that context, we experimentally investigated this question in an urban exploiter bird species (the house sparrow, Passer domesticus), which is dramatically declining in most European cities. To test if the lack of cavities is limiting house sparrow populations in urban areas, we equipped 11 sites along an urbanization gradient with nest boxes and we then evaluated the rate of occupancy of these nest-boxes. This urbanization gradient was characterized by very rural places (isolated farms) and moderately urbanized areas (town of medium size, i.e. 60 000 inhabitants). Surprisingly, rural nest boxes were more occupied than urban ones, suggesting that cavity availability is probably more constraining in rural areas relative to urban ones. Therefore, our study suggests that urban house sparrow populations are probably not constrained by a lack of nesting sites in medium size cities with urban designs similar to our city of interest (Niort, Western France). This hypothesis definitely needs now to be tested in further urban landscapes (e.g. large cities and urban landscapes with other architecture and management policies).
