Abundant variation in microsatellites of the parasitic nematode Trichostrongylus tenuis and linkage to a tandem repeat [PDF]
An understanding of how genes move between and within populations of parasitic nematodes is important in combating the evolution and spread of anthelmintic resistance.

Dialect formation in the vocal repertoire of the ghost bat Macroderma gigas was investigated by comparing acoustic, geographic, genetic and morphological distances among colonies in the Northern Territory Australia. Dialects were detected in all vocalisation types examined, and while genetic (and geographic distance) explained some of the variation ...

A new species of Muscicapa flycatcher from Sulawesi, Indonesia.
The Indonesian island of Sulawesi, a globally important hotspot of avian endemism, has been relatively poorly studied ornithologically, to the extent that several new bird species from the region have been described to science only recently, and others ...

The small Neotropical finches called capuchinos are outstanding because they have experienced one of the most recent and explosive avian radiations ever documented for birds. Despite very low morphological and niche divergence among species, many of them

Reproductive Isolation and Cryptic Introgression in a Sky Island Enclave of Appalachian Birds [PDF]
Reproductive isolation is central to the speciation process, and cases where the strength of reproductive isolation varies geographically can inform our understanding of speciation mechanisms.

Genetic Divergence of an Avian Endemic on the Californian Channel Islands. [PDF]
The Californian Channel Islands are near-shore islands with high levels of endemism, but extensive habitat loss has contributed to the decline or extinction of several endemic taxa. A key parameter for understanding patterns of endemism and demography in

The hitchhiker's guide to avian malaria [PDF]
The ecological mechanisms underlying the dispersal of parasites are poorly understood, which is of particular concern in view of currently emerging infectious diseases.

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies
The most comprehensive phylogeny for Adelpha reveals that it is not monophyletic, supporting the description of the new genus Adelphina for the alala‐group. The rate of mimicry evolution increases towards the tropics, consistent with the hypothesis of stronger biotic interactions near the equator.
