Systematic affinities of two enigmatic New Zealand passerines of high conservation priority, the hihi or stitchbird Notiomystis cincta and the kokako Callaeas cinerea.
Traditional systematic relations within the Passeriformes, perching birds, have recently been re-shuZed in a major review of the “largest avian radiation” (Barker et al., 2004). This includes now recognising Wve basal oscine passerine lineages, rather than the traditional view of two major groups, the Passerida and Corvida (Sibley and Ahlquist, 1990). The avian fauna of New Zealand provide key ...
متن کاملMitochondrial and nuclear DNA phylogenies reveal a complex evolutionary history in the Australasian robins (Passeriformes: Petroicidae).
The Australasian robins (Petroicidae) comprise a relatively homogeneous group of small to medium-sized insectivorous birds. Their center of diversity is Australia and New Guinea (40 species) but seven species have managed to colonize geographically distant islands such as Tanimbar, New Britain, New Zealand, New Caledonia, Norfolk Island, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Fiji and Samoa. To resolve the ...
متن کاملPatterns and processes of diversification in a widespread and ecologically diverse avian group, the buteonine hawks (Aves, Accipitridae).
Buteonine hawks represent one of the most diverse groups in the Accipitridae, with 58 species distributed in a variety of habitats on almost all continents. Variations in migratory behavior, remarkable dispersal capability, and unusual diversity in Central and South America make buteonine hawks an excellent model for studies in avian evolution. To evaluate the history of their global radiation,...
متن کاملExplosive avian radiations and multi-directional dispersal across Wallacea: evidence from the Campephagidae and other Crown Corvida (Aves).
The systematic relationships among avian families within Crown Corvida have been poorly studied so far and as such been of limited use for biogeographic interpretations. The group has its origin in Australia and is thought to have colonized Africa and the New World via Asia beginning some 35 Mya when terranes of Australian origin approached Asian landmasses. Recent detailed tectonic mapping of ...
متن کاملTaxon sampling and the phylogenetic position of Passeriformes: evidence from 916 avian cytochrome b sequences.
Attempts to resolve relationships among major groups of birds from DNA sequences have been plagued by the problem of apparent long branches connected by short internodes (Sibley and Ahlquist, 1990) and the difculties of sampling a large number of taxa in one study. A recent study of relationships among major avian lineages based on complete mitochondrial DNA sequences (Mindell et al., 1997, 19...
