Kestrels are included in the subfamily Falconinae. There are at least 13 species that belong to the kestrel group, but recent genetic studies suggest that the number of kestrel species might be larger, possibly 16. The paleontological and molecular evidences are congruent in suggesting an evolutionary radiation of kestrels from the Late Miocene (5.6 to 9.8 million years ago) through the Early Pleistocene"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Systematics and evolution of kestrels -- Feeding ecology -- Habitat use -- Breeding density and nest site selection -- Colourations, sexual selection and mating behaviour -- The reproductive cycle: From egg laying to offspring care -- Ecological physiology and immunology -- Environmental toxicity -- Movement ecology -- Conservation status and population dynamics. 650 0 $a Kestrels. 700 1 $a Dell'Omo, Giacomo, $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Costantini, David, $t The kestrel $d Cambridge, United Kingdom : Cambridge University Press, 2020. $z 9781108692120 $w (DLC) 2020007257 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707011107.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2D8490F8C43111EB854196005EECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
