Speciation rates are positively correlated with the rate of plumage color evolution in hummingbirds.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2021

Beltrán Diego F, Shultz Allison J, Parra Juan L

Abstract excerpt

A fascinating pattern in nature is the uneven distribution of biodiversity among clades, some with low species richness and phenotypic variation in contrast to others with remarkable species richness and phenotypic diversity. In animals, communication signals are crucial for intra- and interspecific interactions and are likely an important factor in speciation. However, evidence for the association between the...
