Accurately determining avian species limits has been a challenge and a work in progress for
most of a century. It is a fascinating but difficult problem. Under the biological species …

Aim Species persistence in the face of climate change depends on both ecological and
evolutionary factors. Here, we integrate ecological and whole‐genome sequencing data to …

While the role of selection in divergence along the speciation continuum is theoretically well
understood, defining specific signatures of selection in the genomic landscape of …

Trait genetic architecture plays an important role in the probability that variation in that trait
leads to divergence and speciation. In some cases, speciation may be driven by the …

Disentangling the factors underlying the diversification of geographically variable species
with a wide geographical range is essential to understanding the initial stages and drivers of …

Parasites are a complex and diverse group of organisms that have long intrigued
researchers due to their spectrum of host specialization. Similarly, the consequences that …

Phylogenetics is transitioning from a history of deep-time analyses with few genes to a future
of full-genome data that allows species-level resolutions at deep and shallow time scales …

The Canary: Natural History, Science and Cultural Significance covers the ecology,
evolution and conservation of the canary and related species, along with the history and …

Identifying the genetic basis of adaptive traits is an integral part of understanding the
mechanisms that cause speciation. Speciation relies on the formation of barriers to …

The dramatic climate fluctuations of the Quaternary were key in shaping the global
distribution of species and communities observed today16, 121. During the last glaciation …
