Most species and therefore most hybrid zones have historically been defined using phenotypic characters.

Recently developed genomic tools provide the means to better understand cryptic speciation and hybridization. The Northwestern Crow (Corvus caurinus) and American Crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) are continuously...
