Barn swallows before barns: population histories and intercontinental colonizationRobert M Zink
Bell Museum of Natural History, University of Minnesota, St Paul, MN 55108, USA
Proc Biol Sci 273:1245-51. 2006..Contrary to expectation, populations in North America appear historically larger and more stable than those in the palearctic. The Baikal population apparently has not increased greatly since colonization...
Pleistocene evolution of closely related sand martins Riparia riparia and R. dilutaAlexandra Pavlova
Bell Museum, University of Minnesota, St Paul, MN 55108, USA
Mol Phylogenet Evol 48:61-73. 2008....
Different post-Pleistocene histories of Eurasian paridsAlexandra Pavlova
Bell Museum of Natural History, University of Minnesota, St Paul, MN 55108, USA
J Hered 97:389-402. 2006..montanus. If molecular substitution rates are similar, P. montanus colonized its current Eurasian range earlier than P. major. Differences between prior studies and ours likely result from sampling gaps in earlier studies...
Taxonomic status and evolutionary history of the Saxicola torquata complexRobert M Zink
Bell Museum and Department of Ecology, Evolution and Behavior, University of Minnesota, St Paul, MN 55108, USA
Mol Phylogenet Evol 52:769-73. 2009..We maintain that the topology of a mtDNA gene tree is a valid means to discern taxonomic limits...
A tale of two flatties: different responses of two terrestrial flatworms to past environmental climatic fluctuations at Tallaganda in montane southeastern AustraliaPaul Sunnucks
Department of Genetics, La Trobe University, Bundoora, VIC 3086, Australia
Mol Ecol 15:4513-31. 2006..The two species show highly congruent patterns of catchment-based local genetic endemism with one another and with previously studied slime-mould grazing Collembola...
Evolutionary history, population genetics, and gene flow in the common rosefinch (Carpodacus erythrinus)Alexandra Pavlova
Bell Museum of Natural History and Department of Ecology, Evolution and Behavior, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, MN 55108, USA
Mol Phylogenet Evol 36:669-81. 2005..e. erythrinus and C. e. ferghanensis). The three groups are not reciprocally monophyletic which suggests that they were formed relatively recently. Gene flow among groups is restricted. Coalescence analysis indicated dispersal asymmetry...
