Northern bobwhite (quail) (Colinus virginianus) and scaled quail (Callipepla squamata) populations have declined dramatically in the Rolling Plains ecoregion of Texas and Oklahoma (USA). There is rising concern about potential toxicity of neonicotinoids to birds. To investigate this concern, the authors examined crops of 81 northern bobwhite and 17 scaled quail to determine the presence or absence of seeds treated with 3 neonicotinoids (clothianidin, imidacloprid, and thiamethoxam). No treated seeds were found in the 98 crops examined. Liver samples from all 98 quail were collected and analyzed for neonicotinoid residues. Analysis revealed very low concentrations of neonicotinoids within the quail liver samples. The results suggest there is little to no risk of direct toxicity to quail from neonicotinoids.

北美鹑（鹌鹑）（弗吉尼亚彩鹑）和鳞斑鹑的种群数量在美国得克萨斯州和俄克拉何马州的起伏平原生态区急剧下降。人们越来越担心新烟碱类农药对鸟类的潜在毒性。为了调查这一问题，作者检查了81只北美鹑和17只鳞斑鹑的嗉囊，以确定是否存在用3种新烟碱类农药（噻虫胺、吡虫啉和噻虫嗪）处理过的种子。在所检查的98个嗉囊中未发现经处理的种子。收集了所有98只鹌鹑的肝脏样本，并分析其中的新烟碱类农药残留。分析显示鹌鹑肝脏样本中的新烟碱类农药浓度极低。结果表明，新烟碱类农药对鹌鹑几乎没有直接毒性风险。《环境毒理学与化学》2016年；35：1511 - 1515。© 20
