@manukikorangi Original paper was published on 24th of July, so quite fresh https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-024-02487-5

Transitions between colour mechanisms affect speciation dynamics and range distributions of birds - Nature Ecology & Evolution

Combining geographic information, climate data and colour mechanism at broad phylogenetic and spatial scales, the authors determine how transitions between pigmentary and structural colours influence bird speciation dynamics.
