Biogeography of the Neotropical genus Malacoptila (Aves: Bucconidae): the influence of the Andean orogeny, Amazonian drainage evolution and palaeoclimate

TL;DR: To uncover geographical and temporal patterns of diversification in the puffbird genus Malacoptila, focusing on the influence of landscape and palaeoclimate evolution as drivers of diversifying is focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why is Amazonia a 'source' of biodiversity? Climate-mediated dispersal and synchronous speciation across the Andes in an avian group (Tityrinae).

TL;DR: It is shown that barrier displacement better explains Tityrinae's history than stochasticity or diversity-dependence and is proposed that Amazonia is a source of biodiversity because it is a relic of a biome that was once more extensive and constant diversification is attributed to a spatially heterogeneous landscape that is perpetually dynamic through time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for mtDNA capture in the jacamar Galbula leucogastra/chalcothorax species-complex and insights on the evolution of white-sand ecosystems in the Amazon basin.

TL;DR: Diversification of the Galbula leucogastra/chalcothorax species-complex is characterized with dense sampling across its distribution using mitochondrial and genomic DNA sequences and it is hypothesized that the mitochondrial genome of one of the G. leucogsastra lineage (Madeira) was captured into G. chalcothsorax in the past.
