Ketocarotenoid pigments synthesized from dietary yellow carotenoids produce red colorations in many vertebrates. In birds, this transformation can be made peripherally (integument) or centrally (hepatic conversion). We hypothesize that this depends on the ornament type (plumage vs. bare parts) following a pattern that avoids production costs.

Abstract Aim Birds are often coloured yellow, olive, orange or red by carotenoids, which are plant pigments that are ingested with food. Here we test whether there are consistent patterns of intraspecific geographic variation in male carotenoid‐based plumage coloration linked to latitude, temperature, precipitation and primary productivity. It has been
