Behavioural response to songs between genetically diverged allopatric populations of Darwin’s small tree finch in the Galápagos

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 816-829, May 2021., 2021
Male song can signal species identity and male quality, and behavioural response to song can drive divergence or introgression. In this study, we describe clear differences in male song types and a weak signal of population genetic difference across two populations of small tree finch on two Galapagos Islands. Resident males responded to the song of an

The birds and the trees: Avian ecosystem (dis)service perspectives and farmers' willingness to plant native trees in the agricultural landscape of the Galapagos Islands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 3182-3206, December 2025.
Abstract Agricultural landscapes hold great potential for biodiversity conservation; however, this will require finding solutions that work for both people and nature. Increasingly, the conservation community is calling for more cross‐disciplinary research integrating ecological questions with social and behavioural sciences for a more complete and ...

Unnatural selection in Galapagos : the role of disease in Darwin’s Finches (Geospizinae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Micro-evolutionary studies, such as those of Darwin’s finches (Geospizinae), have been used as indicators of rates of evolution under natural selection. Today however, such studies may be compromised by unnatural selection. Recently introduced infectious
