The syngameon enigma
Despite their evolutionary relevance, multispecies networks or syngameons are rarely
reported in the literature. Discovering how syngameons form and how they are maintained …

Unsupervised machine learning for species delimitation, integrative taxonomy, and biodiversity conservation
RA Pyron - Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2023 - Elsevier
Integrative taxonomy, combining data from multiple axes of biologically relevant variation, is
a major goal of systematics. Ideally, such taxonomies will derive from similarly integrative …
