High Mitochondrial Haplotype Diversity and Western Palearctic Genetic Connectivity in White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) Populations of the South Caucasus

Understanding how historical climatic oscillations and contemporary dispersal interact to shape genetic diversity is central to interpreting population structure in long-distance migratory birds. The White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) has a broad trans-Eurasian distribution, yet popul...
