Abstract Western Cattle Egrets ( Bubulcus ibis ) persist through phenotypic plasticity in behaviour and undertaking various forms of migration to exploit available resources the anthropogenic landscape mosaics. The degradation natural habitats, with land conversion for agriculture urbanisation means co-existing alongside humans. However, their persistence is affected by human-egret conflict, exacerbated a growing human population. We investigated size roosting colonies within uMgungundlovu (Pietermaritzburg) eThekwini (Durban) Municipalities, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. observed features 30 km roosts notes on possible threats urban persistence, from October 2018 September 2019. These areas were both mosaic landscapes some remaining green as well managed spaces built. conducted monthly or nesting population estimates these municipalities identified characteristics which allow roost persistence. An increase under 500 individuals over 600 post-breeding season 2019 was observed; however, no significant difference between breeding seasons found. All Egret 10 landfill, wetland, major road, river, grassland. In addition, sites more likely be near wastewater treatment facility than without nests. Roosting had varying levels disturbance, they require protection continued landscapes.

Alien species are among the greatest threats to biodiversity, but evolutionary origins of invasiveness remain obscure. We conducted first range-wide sampling Hemidactylus mabouia from more than 120 localities across Africa, Madagascar and Neotropics understand history one most widely distributed, invasive vertebrates in world. used a multi-locus phylogeny, delimitation, fossil-calibrated timetree, ancestral area reconstruction distribution models (SDMs) determine how many putative species-level lineages contained within H. , timing tempo diversification, commensality—providing insights into invasiveness. Our analyses suggest ‘ ’ originated Miocene Zambezian biogeographic region includes as 20 lineages, which only sensu stricto is including all Neotropical records. Zambezia hotspot for diversity group with 14 southeastern Zambezia. SDMs that was able establish due habitat suitability, globalization slave trade probably allowed it cross Atlantic. Distribution complex overpredict range —highlighting importance taxonomy management.
