Phenotypic Variation in Mangrove Cuckoo (Coccyzus minor) across Its Geographic Range.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2016

Lloyd John D

Abstract excerpt

Mangrove Cuckoo (Coccyzus minor) exhibits substantial phenotypic variation across its geographic range, but the significance of this variation for taxonomy remains unresolved. Using measurements of bill size and ventral color recorded from 274 museum specimens, I found that variation in these traits was clinal. No named subspecies was reciprocally diagnosable from all others, and none was distinguishable from the...
