Paleoenvironments shaped the exchange of terrestrial vertebrates across Wallace's Line
Faunal turnover in Indo-Australia across Wallace's Line is one of the most recognizable
patterns in biogeography and has catalyzed debate about the role of evolutionary and …

[HTML][HTML] A phylogenomic supertree of birds
It has long been appreciated that analyses of genomic data (eg, whole genome sequencing
or sequence capture) have the potential to reveal the tree of life, but it remains challenging …

Mitonuclear discordance results from incomplete lineage sorting, with no detectable evidence for gene flow, in a rapid radiation of Todiramphus kingfishers
Many organisms possess multiple discrete genomes (ie nuclear and organellar), which are
inherited separately and may have unique and even conflicting evolutionary histories …

Resolving the avian tree of life from top to bottom: the promise and potential boundaries of the phylogenomic era
Reconstructing relationships among extant birds (Neornithes) has been one of the most
difficult problems in phylogenetics, and, despite intensive effort, the avian tree of life remains …

Wallacean and Melanesian islands promote higher rates of diversification within the global passerine radiation Corvides
The complex island archipelagoes of Wallacea and Melanesia have provided empirical data
behind integral theories in evolutionary biology, including allopatric speciation and island …

The role of evolutionary time, diversification rates and dispersal in determining the global diversity of a large radiation of passerine birds
Aim Variation in species diversity among different geographical areas may result from
differences in speciation and extinction rates, immigration and time for diversification. An …

A review of evolutionary research on birds of the New Guinean savannas and closely associated habitats of riparian rainforests, mangroves and grasslands
Three isolated areas of non-rainforested open woodland habitats, often collectively termed
'savanna', occur in eastern New Guinea and are here termed the Trans-Fly, Central Province …

Repeated evolution of drag reduction at the air–water interface in diving kingfishers
Piscivorous birds have a unique suite of adaptations to forage under the water. One method
aerial birds use to catch fish is the plunge dive, wherein birds dive from a height to overcome …
