This project explores evolutionary changes in island species, termed 'island syndrome', focusing on morphological and reproductive traits. It aims to collect standardized data from museum specimens and investigate the evolutionary processes affecting island birds, particularly in the Gulf of Guinea.
Species on islands are widely believed to undergo similar evolutionary changes as an adaptation to the island environment, a process referred to as the ‘island syndrome’.
These changes affect morphological, reproductive, physiological and behavioural traits such as sexual selection.
Evolutionary change on islands is believed to relate to genetic (e.g. bottleneck) and ecological factors (e.g. release from natural enemies such as parasites and predators).
However, very few broad-scale tests of the…
