Foraging behavior, not prey identity, facilitates niche packing in a tropical montane avifauna

Jacob R. Drucker, Abhimanyu Lele, Mason Fidino, Joseph Dylan Maddox, Sophie Picq, Elisa Bonaccorso, John Bates

The paper examines how foraging behavior, rather than prey identity, influences niche packing in tropical montane birds across an elevational gradient.

Phylogenomics and biogeography of the parrot genus Pyrrhura with implications for systematics and conservation

Jaime G. Morin-Lagos, Taylor Hains, José Cerca, Michael Wink, Stacy Pirro, Cristina Yumi Miyaki, Shannon J. Hackett, John M. Bates, Michael D. Martin

This study uses whole-genome and mitogenome data from Pyrrhura parrots to reconstruct phylogenies, revealing mito-nuclear discordance, captive lineages, and historical colonization events.
