New insights into New World biogeography: An integrated view from the phylogeny of blackbirds, cardinals, sparrows, tanagers, warblers, and allies (2015, background): “Now that molecular phylogenetic analyses have largely resolved such controversial relationships among higher taxa (Barker et al. 2002, 2004, 2013, Ericson and Johansson 2003), as well as revealing species-level relationships within most of the major emberizoid lineages (Lovette et al. 2010, Burns…”
VERTEBRATE DISPERSAL OF SEED PLANTS THROUGH TIME (2004, background): “An ankylosaurian cololite from the Lower Cretaceous of Queensland, Australia.”
Metaves, Mirandornithes, Strisores and other novelties – a critical review of the higher‐level phylogeny of neornithine birds (2010, background): “…analyses is the recognition of sister group relationship between the New Zealand Acanthisittidae and all other extant passeriform birds, the Eupasseres, which fall into two clades, the predominantly New World Suboscines and the Oscines (Barker et al. 2002, 2004; Ericson et al. 2002, 2003b).”
Evolution of terrestrial birds in three continents: biogeography and parallel radiations (2012, background): “As previously suggested (Barker et al., 2002, 2004; Ericson et al., 2002, 2003) this passerine lineage may have been isolated in South America at the break-up of Gondwana and diversified in isolation until the South and North American continental plates came close enough to allow dispersal.”
Evolution of Seed Size and Biotic Seed Dispersal in Angiosperms: Paleoecological and Neoecological Evidence (2008, background): “An earlier origin of the passerines in the Southern Hemisphere has been suggested (Ericson et al. 2003), and molecular data indicate that modern birds originated in Cretaceous, but fossil evidence is lacking (Feduccia 1996; Chiappe and Dyke 2002).”
Inter-generic relationships of the crows, jays, magpies and allied groups (Aves: Corvidae) based on nucleotide sequence data (2005, background): “The ancestor of the oscine passerines, to which the Corvidae belongs, appears to have been isolated on the Australo-Papuan tectonic plate when this split from Antarctica in the early Tertiary (Ericson et al. 2002b, 2003).”
Nuclear DNA from old collections of avian study skins reveals the evolutionary history of the Old World suboscines (Aves, Passeriformes) (2006, background): “After the break-up of Gondwana the Old World suboscines appear to have evolved on the Indian tectonic plate (Ericson et al. 2003).”
The global distribution of frugivory in birds (2009, background): “Many bird clades have undergone extensive recent evolutionary radiations in the Neotropics (Ricklefs, 2002; Ericson et al., 2003; Newton, 2003) including orders with large numbers of frugivorous species (Table 1, Fig.”
Fleshy fruits – origins, niche shifts, and diversification (2005, background): “mammals and birds ( Ericson et al. 2003, Springer et al. 2003), was the primary reason for the evolution of larger fruits and seeds.”
Prevalence of different modes of parental care in birds (2006, methodology): “I augmented the phylogenetic hypotheses of Sibley & Ahlqist (1990) with insights from new molecular phylogenetic analysis, which has particularly marked effects on the relationships of the passerines (Barker et al. 2002, 2004; Ericson et al. 2002, 2003).”
Decline of a biome: evolution, contraction, fragmentation, extinction and invasion of the Australian mesic zone biota (2011, unknown): “For birds, mesic ancestry was inferred from all phylogenies for passerines, particularly oscine passerines (Barker et al., 2002, 2004; Ericson et al., 2002, 2003; Chesser & ten Have, 2007) and for parrots among non-passerines (Wright et al., 2008; Schweizer et al., 2010).”
