Morphological Evolution in Island Birds Is Associated With More Terrestrial Lifestyles and a Lower Number of Raptors and Intra‐Family Competitors

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Island biotas experience unique ecological conditions, such as isolation, small areas, or simplified communities that promote repeated patterns of evolution like changes in body size, that have been widely studied. By contrast, apart from the evolution of flightlessness in birds, changes in body shape remain relatively less explored. Here,
