Not like night and day: the nocturnal letter-winged kite does not differ from diurnal congeners in orbit or endocast morphology
Nocturnal birds display diverse adaptations of the visual system to low-light conditions. The skulls of birds reflect many of these and are used increasingly to infer nocturnality in extinct species. However, it is unclear how reliable such assessments are, particularly in cases of recent evolutiona...
