Genomic Footprints of Ancient Multi‐Species Introgression Events Among Allopatric Australo‐Papuan Butcherbird Species

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has influenced the evolution of the world's biota, shaping species distributions, promoting diversification and causing extinctions. The turbulent climatic oscillations of the Pleistocene, which caused repeated periods of isolation and secondary contact, have left lasting signatures on the genomes of species across the world.

Phylogenomics reveals the timescale of diversification in Amblycera

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 540-553, July 2025.
Next‐generation sequencing changes the higher taxonomy of Amblycera (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Families Trimenoponidae and Gyropidae merge into Gyropidae; Trinotonidae is a separate family; several genera are paraphyletic. The ancestral host of Amblycera was likely a bird; Amblycera switched to mammals twice.

A new feather mite of the genus Dolichodectes (Astigmata: Proctophyllodidae) from Hippolais polyglotta (Passeriformes: Acrocephalidae) in Spain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A new feather mite species, Dolichodectes hispanicus sp. n. (Astigmata: Proctophyllodidae), is described from the Melodious Warbler Hippolais polyglotta (Vieillot) (Passeriformes: Acrocephalidae) in Spain. The new species is closest to the type species

Dissecting the roles of body size and beak morphology in song evolution in the “blue” cardinalids (Passeriformes: Cardinalidae)

open access: yesThe AUK: A Quarterly Journal of Ornithology, 2018
Certain vocal signals can be difficult or challenging to produce due to constraints on vocal mechanics. In the case of birdsong, both body size and beak morphology have been shown to constrain spectral and temporal song parameters.

Supermatrix Phylogenetic Tree of Passerine Birds From the Indo‐Australian Archipelago Highlights Contrasting Histories of Regional Endemism

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
To better understand the relative histories of bird diversification in the different areas of the Indo‐Australian Archipelago (IAA) we compile an updated and as‐complete‐as‐possible supermatrix phylogeny for passerine birds from the IAA and use this to estimate the different levels of endemism in the IAA.

Genotype Of Sturnus Contra (Sturnidae-Passeriformes: Aves)

open access: yes, 2013
The present communiqué pertains to the chromosomal investigation of pied myna, Sturnus contra of the Family-Sturnidae : Order-Passeriformes : Class-Aves. The chromosomes were extracted from bone marrow cells of previously colchicinized grown-up individuals. The chromosome count vacillated between 78 and 85 with more than 50% of the cells depicting 2n =
