Abstract excerpt
Understanding the demographic history of tropical montane species offers insights into how climate-driven habitat dynamics shape genetic diversity and population structure. The Tourmaline Sunangel (Heliangelus exortis), a hummingbird endemic to the Northern Andes of Colombia and Ecuador, inhabits high-elevation ecosystems that were repeatedly impacted by Pleistocene glacial-interglacial cycles. To enable genomic...
