Molecular population genetics of the melanic plumage polymorphism in Arctic skuas (Stercorarius parasiticus): evidence for divergent selection on plumage colour.
Janssen K, Mundy NI. Janssen K, et al. Mol Ecol. 2013 Sep;22(18):4634-43. doi: 10.1111/mec.12428. Epub 2013 Aug 23. Mol Ecol. 2013. PMID: 23980902
The Arctic skua (Stercorarius parasiticus) is a classic example of an avian plumage polymorphism, with variation in melanin-based ventral plumage coloration defining pale, intermediate and dark morphs in adults of both sexes. ...

DNA damage in Arctic seabirds: Baseline, sensitivity to a genotoxic stressor, and association with organohalogen contaminants.
Haarr A, Hylland K, Eckbo N, Gabrielsen GW, Herzke D, Bustnes JO, Blévin P, Chastel O, Moe B, Hanssen SA, Sagerup K, Borgå K. Haarr A, et al. Environ Toxicol Chem. 2018 Apr;37(4):1084-1091. doi: 10.1002/etc.4035. Epub 2018 Jan 16. Environ Toxicol Chem. 2018. PMID: 29120089
Blood was sampled from common eider (Somateria mollissima), black guillemot (Cepphus grylle), black-legged kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla), glaucous gull (Larus hyperboreus), arctic skua (Stercorarius parasiticus), and great skua (Stercorarius skua) in Kongsfjorden, Sv …

Combined bottom-up and top-down pressures drive catastrophic population declines of Arctic skuas in Scotland.
Perkins A, Ratcliffe N, Suddaby D, Ribbands B, Smith C, Ellis P, Meek E, Bolton M. Perkins A, et al. J Anim Ecol. 2018 Nov;87(6):1573-1586. doi: 10.1111/1365-2656.12890. Epub 2018 Aug 28. J Anim Ecol. 2018. PMID: 30155905
Many species have declined severely, with food shortages, and increased predation reducing productivity. Arctic skua Stercorarius parasiticus, a kleptoparasite of other seabirds, is one such species. ...

Whether temporal carry-over effects are more pronounced among migrations over larger distances, with tighter schedules, is a largely unexplored question. METHODS: We tracked individual Arctic Skuas Stercorarius parasiticus, a long-distance migratory seabird, from ei …

Differences in speciation progress in feather mites (Analgoidea) inhabiting the same host: the case of Zachvatkinia and Alloptes living on arctic and long-tailed skuas.
Dabert M, Coulson SJ, Gwiazdowicz DJ, Moe B, Hanssen SA, Biersma EM, Pilskog HE, Dabert J. Dabert M, et al. Exp Appl Acarol. 2015 Feb;65(2):163-79. doi: 10.1007/s10493-014-9856-1. Epub 2014 Oct 24. Exp Appl Acarol. 2015. PMID: 25342243 Free PMC article.
In this study we analyzed two species, Zachvatkinia isolata (Avenzoariidae) and Alloptes (Sternalloptes) stercorarii (Alloptidae) which prefer different parts of the plumage of two sister species of birds: arctic skua (Stercorarius parasiticus) and long-tailed skua …

Conserved genetic basis of a quantitative plumage trait involved in mate choice.
Mundy NI, Badcock NS, Hart T, Scribner K, Janssen K, Nadeau NJ. Mundy NI, et al. Science. 2004 Mar 19;303(5665):1870-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1093834. Science. 2004. PMID: 15031505
Here we show that in two classic examples of melanic plumage polymorphisms in birds, lesser snow geese (Anser c. caerulescens) and arctic skuas (Stercorarius parasiticus), melanism is perfectly associated with variation in the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) gene. .. …
