Contemporary philosophy and methods for studying speciation and delimiting species
Species delimitation is a first step for realizing the extent of biodiversity and is relevant for all
downstream applications in biology. The production of large genome-scale datasets for non …

Late Pleistocene landscape changes and habitat specialization as promoters of population genomic divergence in Amazonian floodplain birds
Although vicariant processes are expected to leave similar genomic signatures among
codistributed taxa, ecological traits such as habitat and stratum can influence genetic …

Resolving spatial complexities of hybridization in the context of the gray zone of speciation in North American ratsnakes (Pantherophis obsoletus complex)
Inferring the history of divergence between species in a framework that permits the presence
of gene flow has been crucial for characterizing the “gray zone” of speciation, which is the …
