“…There are even Amazonian bird examples that inhabit this region, but their populations are not delimited by Jurua and Purus rivers, suggesting that these rivers did not work as effective barriers in the diversification of these lineages (Fernandes et al, ; Fernandes et al, ). In addition, many cases of secondary contact and hybridisation have been reported in the family Pipridae, which also reinforces the hypothesis of introgression between the L. coronata populations (Alves, Albano, de Girão Silva, Araripe, & do Rego, ; Brumfield, Jernigan, McDonald, & Braun, ; Marini & Hackett, ), which may have occurred even before the lineages had become separated completely, as observed in the L. coronata populations distributed on the southern margin of the Solimões River, given the polymorphism in the plumage colouration in both subclades (C1 and C2). However, the two populations form two well‐supported subclades, with no evidence of gene flow between them (in the mitochondrial markers, at least, given the lack of resolution in the nuclear markers).…”

We used molecular tools and a multilocus approach to investigate the phylogeography of Lepidothrix coronata across most of its ample range. We sequenced six DNA fragments to produce phylogenies, molecular dating estimates, analyses of the dynamics of the demographic history of the species and a biogeographic analysis to estimate the events and changes in the ancestral distribution of the species. The results indicated the presence of four well‐established lineages, with high levels of divergence. These lineages are delineated by well‐defined geographic barriers, with one lineage, restricted to the west of the Andes, being the first to diverge from the complex. The other three lineages are exclusive to the Amazonian distribution of the species, with two being found north of the Amazon River, and the third, south of the Amazon. Some of the relationships found between these lineages were distinct from those described in previous studies. Important disagreements were found between the mtDNA phylogeny and that of the multilocus analysis, in relation to the lineages located to the west of the Andes. We propose that past introgression events may have influenced shifts in the relationships between lineages, despite the fact that the groups were well defined in both the phylogenies. The biogeographic analysis indicates that the lineages arose through successive vicariance events, which had a primary role in the diversification of the group. Two or three genetically structured subclades were also found within each Amazonian lineage, although these subclades are not isolated by an obvious geographic barrier.

“…More recently, Alves et al () confirmed the occurrence of hybridization between species of the genera Chiroxiphia and Antilophia in the Ibiapaba mountains. However, the Antilophia species involved in this event was not confirmed by direct observation or molecular analysis (Alves et al ). The occurrence of Antilophia in the cloud forest of the Ibiapaba mountains would be the most northerly point of either current distribution of the two species, is consistent with the existence of a possible route of expansion of the ancestral population prior to the differentiation of the Araripe Manakin.…”

“…This ecoregion is recognized as one of the principal centers of endemism of the Caatinga biome, based on the analysis of the plant species of the family Leguminosae (Queiroz 2006). More recently, Alves et al (2016) confirmed the occurrence of hybridization between species of the genera Chiroxiphia and Antilophia in the Ibiapaba mountains. However, the Antilophia species involved in this event was a smaller scale, found in its sister species, which is probably due to the retention of ancestral polymorphisms, as observed in the haplotype network, in particular (Fig.…”

To determine a hypothetical scenario that accounts for the diversification of the two species of the genus Antilophia, we conducted multilocus molecular comparisons and species distribution modeling for the two taxa, which have distinct male plumage coloration patterns and allopatric geographic distributions, despite the high degree of genetic similarity indicated by recent studies. Three mitochondrial and three nuclear fragments were analyzed. The results indicate clear differences in the genetic diversity of the two species, but with ample sharing of haplotypes in all the markers analyzed, reflecting the absence of reciprocal monophyly, presumably due to the relatively recent and still incomplete separation of the two species. The paleoclimatic distribution models, together with the observed genetic profile indicate a recent process of divergence by geographic isolation in the ancestral populations of the two species. This scenario coincides with the recent climatic events of the South American dry diagonal, which involves the gallery forests of the Cerrado biome and the cloud forest enclaves of the seasonal tropical dry forest of the Caatinga between the late Pleistocene and the mid Holocene.

“…The genus Antilophia includes two species, the a Helmeted Manakin and the recently described Araripe Manakin A. bokermanni (Kirwan & Green 2011). The genus is sister to Chiroxiphia (Ohlson a et al 2013), maybe congeneric with it (Silva et al 2018), and there are several reports of hybridization between them (Rezende et al 2013, Alves et al 2016. The Helmeted Manakin is a highly dimorphic species, with males predominantly black with a distinctive red crest, nape, and mantle; females, as well as young males, are mostly olive green (Ridgely & Tudor 2009).…”

Manakins (Pipridae) are well-known by their promiscuous mating system. Nonetheless, scarce evidence suggests that the Helmeted Manakin Antilophia galeata, the only dichromatic manakin widely distributed in the South American Cerrado, is monogamic. We studied the breeding biology of the Helmeted Manakin in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. We found 17 nests, which are built in the forest undergrowth (usually below 3 m height). Nests are a cup attached by its top lip usually in the angle of a forked branch. The nest attachment zone is made mostly of spider silk. The structural zone is constructed with dry broad leaves, leaf petioles and horsehair fungus, which were bind together by a considerable amount of spider silk. The outer (decorative) zone is made with some hanging dry broad leaves, frequently forming a tail. Clutch size is always two (n = 12), and eggs are long oval, with a ground color in different shades of beige, marked with irregular spot, blotches and, sometimes, streaks ranging from light to dark brown. Mean eggs measurements were 23.9 x 16.3 mm (n = 14), weighting 3.3 g (n = 10). Eggs are laid once each day and hatching is synchronous. Females are the sole responsible for nest building (which usually took 10 days), incubation (18.5 days), and nestling care (18.3 days). The simple percentage of successful nests (n = 11) was 27% and predation was the main cause of nest failure. The breeding season extends from the second half of August to the first half of January. Renesting after loss of a first clutch is a common strategy and we recorded up to three nesting attempts for a single female. We present evidence that the Helmeted Manakin is promiscuous, as usual for a dichromatic manakin.
