Ferran Sayol Altarriba I am a La Caixa Junior Leader researcher at CREAF, in Barcelona. My research aims to understand how biodiversity is originated and organized, and how it can be lost by anthropogenic impacts.

Oct 3, 2024 · In this work, we show that, since the Late Pleistocene, the extinction of 610 bird species has caused a disproportionate loss of the global avian functional space along with ~3 billion years of unique evolutionary history. For island endemics, proportional losses have …

Here we present AVOTREX, an open-access database of species traits for all birds known to have gone extinct in the last 130,000 years. This database provides detailed morphological information for 610 extinct species, along with a pipeline to build phylogenetic trees that include these extinct species.

We updated an existing list of 581 species (Sayol et al. 2020) by compiling data from published monographs and books (Steadman 2006; Turvey 2009; Hume 2017). To update this inventory, we undertook a literature search in Google Scholar combining a list of geographical terms + avian OR bird + extinct OR fossil.
