This work summarizes variation over time in the 317 doctoral theses on ornithology defended in Spain between 2000 and 2019 whose abstracts have been published in the section Reviews of doctoral theses in Ornithology in the scientific journal Ardeola. These were analyzed in terms of (i) the relative contribution by each university, (ii) the research topics tackled, (iii) the taxonomic groups studied and (iv) differences in author gender. The number of theses defended annually is around 15, but there is an upward trend. Complutense and Barcelona universities hosted the highest number of theses, followed by the Autonomous University of Madrid and the University of Granada. The most selected topics were conservation and reproduction biology, followed by habitat selection, population dynamics and physiology, while the most studied groups of birds were Passeriformes (and within this order, the Paridae), followed by Charadriiformes and diurnal raptors. The number of PhD theses defended by males is higher than those read by females; both genders, however, show a similar positive upward trend in the number of theses read. Our results are an indication of how trends and subject-matters in ornithological research in Spain have progressed in recent years.
