As my very 1st Bluesky post, I’m happy to share the publication of our new study in Science Advances on how
the geographical shape of bird species’ ranges may play a role in creating #biodiversity hotspots 🦜 By Sonne J, @mkborregaard.bsky.social, Colwell R, Rahbek C:

Elongated and patchy bird ranges increase species richness in global biodiversity hotspots beyond the effect of small range sizes.
