Department of Zoology and Physiology, Program in Ecology, University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming 82071, USA
Ann N Y Acad Sci 1206:1-16. 2010..The conditions favoring coevolution between crossbills and conifers are widespread, and coevolution has played at least some role in at least three fourths of the taxa of crossbills...
An introduced and a native vertebrate hybridize to form a genetic bridge to a second native speciesDavid B McDonald
Department of Zoology and Physiology and Program in Ecology, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY 82071, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 105:10837-42. 2008..Although the present study involved an introduced species, similar patterns of hybridization could result from natural processes, including stream capture or geological formations (e.g., the Bering land bridge)...
