Fieldwork in Zambia investigating the evolution of polymorphisms across species radiations

Nov 16, 2022

Dr Gabriel Jamie has just returned from a successful couple of months of fieldwork in Zambia as part of his Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellowship. For this research, Dr Jamie is exploring the evolution of polymorphisms across diverse avian family Cisticolidae which exhibit some of the most complex and diverse eggs of any group of birds in the world. During this season’s fieldwork, Dr Jamie was collaborating with ecologist and conservation biologist Frank Willems to increase sampling across this species rich radiation.
