A coalescent-based estimator of genetic drift, and acoustic divergence in the Pteronotus parnellii species complex
(2019)
Determining the processes responsible for phenotypic variation is one of the central tasks of evolutionary biology. While the importance of acoustic traits for foraging and communication in echolocating mammals suggests ...
A winter distribution model for Bicknell’s Thrush (Catharus bicknelli), a conservation tool for a threatened migratory songbird
(2013)
Conservation planning and implementation require identifying pertinent habitats and locations where protection and management may improve viability of targeted species. The winter range of Bicknell’s Thrush (Catharus ...

[Español] Las comunidades campesinas han estado observando sus territorios y manejando su biodiversidad desde tiempos inmemoriales; pero con los avances de la ciencia y la tecnología, sus saberes son marginados por un ...
The composition of wintering bird communities in an agricultural landscape of the Northwestern Dominican Republic
(2019)
Hispaniola, the second largest and most topographically complex island in the Antilles of the Caribbean, is home to a wide variety of habitats for resident birds as well as overwintering migrants from North America. Over ...
Population structure of an endemic fish Limia zonata (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliinae) in the Maimón River, Dominican Republic
