Shiyi Tang, Auteur ; Dianhua Ke, Auteur ; Tonglei Yu, Auteur ; Changcao Wang, Auteur ; Qingtian Zhao, Auteur ; Haiying Fan, Auteur ; Guoyue Zhang, Auteur ; Chen Wang, Auteur ; Xin Lu, AuteurKnowledge of cooperative breeding in birds from longitudinal studies is available only for a small proportion of species. This paper reports data from a 12-year study on the Tibetan Ground Tit Pseudopodoces humilis. On average, 27.2% (range: 13.[...]
Article
Yinhui Li, Auteur ; Shaobin Li, Auteur ; Cheng Guo, Auteur ; Guoyue Zhang, Auteur ; Yang Zhou, Auteur ; Xin Lu, AuteurThe way in which breeders respond to helping, in terms of either offspring production or their own survival, may reflect the adaptive aspects of a cooperative breeding system. We explore this issue using a 5-year study of the Ground Tit Pseudopo[...]

Dianhua Ke, Auteur ; Xin Lu, AuteurThe Tibetan Ground Tit Pseudopodoces humilis is a high-altitude passerine endemic to the Tibetan Plateau. A 4-year study in alpine meadows in Northern Tibet at 4300 m asl demonstrated that rather than using Pika Ochotona spp. holes as previously[...]
Article
Xin Lu, Auteur ; Tonglei Yu, Auteur ; Wei Liang, Auteur ; Canchao Yang, AuteurColder, unpredictable climates, and reduced food availability at high altitudes impose strong selective pressures that have driven the evolution of avian life histories. To fully understand this issue, data concerning the comparative demography [...]
Article
Xin Lu, Auteur ; Guangmei Zheng, AuteurThe Tibetan Eared-pheasant Crossoptilon harmani is a high-altitude galliform endemic to south Tibet. At a macrohabitat scale, we have shown that populations of this species are limited by a lack of suitable roosts in their scrub-covered montane [...]
Article
