A new species of Muscicapa flycatcher from Sulawesi, Indonesia.
PLoS ONE, 2014 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 ...

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Demographic, geographic, and environmental factors such as effective population size, isolation, and habitat availability interact to shape contemporary levels of population genomic diversity. Such factors must be carefully evaluated and contextualized at both the intraspecific and interspecific levels when assessing the conservation status of

PLoS ONE, 2020 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

Genetic Divergence of an Avian Endemic on the Californian Channel Islands. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 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

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 13, July 2026.ABSTRACT Despite technological advances in both tracking and sequencing technologies, finding the genetic mechanisms behind migratory traits remains a challenge. Recent studies have shown that migratory direction in European willow warblers (Phylloscopus trochilus) is mainly influenced by a repeat‐rich region named MARB.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 14, July 2026.ABSTRACT The immense biodiversity observed in tropical forests has inspired the study of evolution since its inception, and numerous hypotheses have been generated to explain this diversity. One major driver of tropical forest biodiversity has been the repeated climatic fluctuations due to the Pleistocene glacial cycles.

mtDNA-CN measured across DNA extraction methods.
, 2020 mtDNA-CN measured by qPCR was mean-zeroed and averaged across three runs for Lyse, PCIAA and Qiagen Kit DNA extractions. Variance for Lyse, PCIAA and Qiagen Kit are 0.02, 0.17 and 0.59 respectively. PCIAA, phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol.
