Modern attempts to produce biogeographic maps focus on the distribution of species, and
the maps are typically drawn without phylogenetic considerations. Here, we generate a …

We review the main biogeographic and phylogenetic hypotheses about the origin and
distribution of the endemic birds from Brazilian mountaintops, a heterogeneous group …

Patterns of diversification in species‐rich clades provide insight into the processes that
generate biological diversity. We tested different models of lineage and phenotypic …

An implicit assumption of speciation biology is that population differentiation is an important
stage of evolutionary diversification, but its significance as a rate-limiting control on …

Mating signals may diversify as a byproduct of morphological adaptation to different foraging
niches, potentially driving speciation. Although many studies have focused on the direct …

DNA barcodes of birds are currently available for 41% of known species and for many
different geographic areas; therefore, they are a rich data source to answer evolutionary …

Because a broad spectrum of resource use allows species to persist in a wide range of
habitat types, and thus permits them to occupy large geographical areas, and because …

Rapid diversification may be caused by ecological adaptive radiation via niche divergence.
In this model, speciation is coupled with niche divergence and lineage diversification is …

Aim To examine the effect of geographical barriers and habitat dynamics related to climatic
oscillations on the phylogeography of a widespread passerine of Neotropical cloud forests …

Spatial variation in biodiversity is the result of complex interactions between evolutionary
history and ecological factors. Methods in historical biogeography combine phylogenetic …
