This project examines the relationship between trait evolution and speciation in birds. It aims to analyze how variations in the rates of trait evolution can influence the rates of speciation across different lineages using phylogenetic and ecological data.
According to models of adaptive radiation and sexual selection trait divergence is a key step in the speciation process.
At a macroevolutionary scale this leads to the prediction that speciation is driven by the rate of trait evolution rather than the state of the trait.
Despite the established theoretical links between trait evolution and speciation, most macroevolutionary studies focus on predicting speciation as a state dependent process.
To date the hypothesis that rapid speciation is driven…
