  • Darwin and Northern Territory (06/22/2019 – 07/06/2019) – Birding Report
    Darwin and Northern Territory (06/22/2019 – 07/06/2019) – Birding Report Participants: Corey Callaghan and Diane Callaghan Email: [email protected] Overview: At an Australasian Ornithological Conference in Geelong, November 2017, they announced that the next conference would be in Darwin in 2019. I immediately booked it in the calendar that that is when I would do the typical Darwin birding trip. Diane was on board, and so we decided to do a solid birding trip before the conference in early July. There are some tricky ‘must-get’ birds here, and overall we did pretty well. We ended with 198 species for the trip, and got pretty much all the critical top end birds. Didn’t get any of the mangrove specialties (e.g., whistlers, and fantail), but I was still pleased with how we did. Highlights included all the finches that we saw, and the great spread of waterbirds. Chestnut Rail was also a highlight. When I went to the conference, I dropped Diane off to go hiking at Litchfield National Park, but before that we did a 10 day trip, driving out to Timber Creek and then back. Read below for day- by-day highlights, some photos, and various birding locations. Any hyperlinks should take you to the associated location and/or eBird checklists, which would provide precise coordinates and sometimes more detailed location notes. *Note: I follow the eBird/clements taxonomy, which differs in bird names from IOC. Blue-faced Honeyeater Day 1 (June 22nd, 2019): Flight from Sydney to Darwin We had an early flight from Sydney and got into Darwin at about 2:00 PM.

  • Uneven Missing Data Skew Phylogenomic Relationships Within the Lories and Lorikeets

Accepted: 26 May 2020 Abstract The resolution of the Tree of Life has accelerated with advances in DNA sequencing technology. To achieve dense taxon sampling, it is often necessary to obtain DNA from historical museum specimens to supplement modern genetic samples. However, DNA from historical material is generally degraded, which presents various challenges. In this study, we evaluated how the coverage at variant sites and missing data among historical and modern samples impacts phylogenomic inference. We explored these patterns in the brush-tongued parrots (lories and lorikeets) of Australasia by sampling ultraconserved elements in 105 taxa. Trees estimated with low coverage characters had several clades where relationships appeared to be influenced by whether the sample came from historical or modern specimens, which were not observed when more stringent filtering was applied. To assess if the topologies were affected by missingdata,weperformedanoutlieranalysisofsitesandloci,andadatareductionapproachwhereweexcludedsitesbasedondata completeness. Depending on the outlier test, 0.15% of total sites or 38% of loci were driving the topological differences among trees, and at these sites, historical samples had 10.9Â more missing data than modern ones.

  • Australia Comprehensive Target Species Custom Tour Trip Report
    AUSTRALIA COMPREHENSIVE TARGET SPECIES CUSTOM TOUR TRIP REPORT 23 AUGUST – 1 OCTOBER 2019 By Andy Walker The Endangered (BirdLife International) Mallee Emu-wren has a tiny global range, and we had excellent views of a pair while birdwatching in Victoria. www.birdingecotours.com [email protected] 2 | TRIP REPORT Australia, Aug-Oct 2019 Overview This 40-day custom birdwatching tour of Australia commenced in Adelaide, South Australia, on the 23rd of August 2019 and ended in Sydney, New South Wales, on the 1st of October 2019. The tour also visited the states and territories of Victoria, Northern Territory, and Queensland. A pelagic trip was taken off southern South Australia (Port MacDonnell). Unfortunately a planned pelagic trip off southern Queensland (Southport) was canceled due to illness. This custom birding tour route was South Australia (Adelaide to Port MacDonnell) - Victoria (circuit around the western section of the state) - New South Wales (a brief stop for parrots along the state border) -Victoria (remainder of the western circuit back to Melbourne) - Northern Territory (Alice Springs area) - Northern Territory (Darwin to Kakadu and back) - Queensland (circuit out of Brisbane) - New South Wales (circuit out of Sydney). Several areas visited on this tour feature in our Australia set departure tours (e.g. East Coast and Northern Territory tours). A list of target birds was provided for the tour (the clients’ third trip to Australia), and these became the focus of the tour route and birding, though new trip birds encountered were also enjoyed! A total of 421 bird species were seen (plus 5 species heard only), including many client target birds.
