Abstract
Aim To understand the causes of historical and current elevational richness patterns of Leiothrichinae babblers, a diverse and mostly endemic group of birds. Location A 5000-m elevational gradient in the Hengduan Mountains, China. Methods By means of a dated phylogenetic tree and reconstructed ancestral states, we estimated elevation-specific diversification rate, applied a new method to estimate colonization frequency and age and, for the first...
