Total-Evidence Framework Reveals Complex Morphological Evolution in Nightbirds (Strisores)
Strisores is a clade of neoavian birds that include diurnal aerial specialists such as swifts and hummingbirds, as well as several predominantly nocturnal lineages such as nightjars and potoos. Despite the use of genome-scale molecular datasets, the phylogenetic interrelationships among major striso...
