Latitudinal gradients and sex differences in morphology of the Black Oystercatcher (Haematopus bachmani)

Abstract Environment and behavior are widely understood to affect bird morphology, which can lead to differences among subspecies or populations within a wide‐ranging species. Several patterns of latitudinal gradients in morphology have been described, though Allen's and Bergmann's rules a...
