“…We contribute to the growing body of multi-locus phylogeographic studies investigating the effect of Pleistocene climate change on species evolution by focusing on a widespread Australo-Papuan songbird with several mitochondrial lineages that diverged during the Pleistocene, the grey shrike-thrush (Colluricincla harmonica). We employed multi-locus phylogenetic, population genetic and coalescent analyses to (1) assess whether nuclear genetic diversity suggests a history congruent with that based on phenotypically defined subspecies ranges, mitochondrial clade boundaries and putative biogeographical barriers, (2) estimate genetic diversity within and genetic differentiation and gene flow among regional populations and (3) estimate population divergence times. …”
