Going under down under? Lineage ages argue for extensive survival of the Oligocene marine transgression on Zealandia
Twenty‐five years ago, it was suggested that current‐day New Zealand, part of the largely
sunken continent of Zealandia, could have been completely inundated during the Oligocene …

Ancient DNA reveals elephant birds and kiwi are sister taxa and clarifies ratite bird evolution
The evolution of the ratite birds has been widely attributed to vicariant speciation, driven by
