Body size is associated with yearling breeding and extra-pair mating in the Island Scrub-Jay

Desrosiers, Michelle A.; Langin, Kathryn M.; Funk, W. C.; Sillett, T. S.; Morrison, Scott A.; Ghalambor, Cameron K.; Angeloni, Lisa M. (2021)

Abstract Large body size is an important determinant of individual fitness in many animal species, especially in island systems where habitat saturation may result in strong intraspecific competition for mates and breeding ...
Islands within an island: Repeated adaptive divergence in a single population

Langin, Kathryn M.; Sillett, T. Scott; Funk, W. C.; Morrison, Scott A.; Desrosiers, Michelle A.; Ghalambor, Cameron K. (2015)

Physical barriers to gene flow were once viewed as prerequisites for adaptive evolutionary divergence. However, a growing body of theoretical and empirical work suggests that divergence can proceed within a single population. ...
Reproductive Ecology of the Island Scrub-Jay (Ecología Reproductiva de Aphelocoma insularis)

Caldwell, Luke; Bakker, Victoria J.; Sillett, T. Scott; Desrosiers, Michelle A.; Morrison, Scott A.; Angeloni, Lisa M. (2013)

Abstract We investigated the reproductive ecology of the Island Scrub-Jay (Aphelocoma insularis), which is endemic to Santa Cruz Island, California, and is a species of conservation concern. We documented daily nest survival, ...
