Data from: Niche shifts after island colonization spurred adaptive diversification and speciation in a cosmopolitan bird clade

Files included: ColumbidaeTraits.csv The dataset includes a list of 214 species of Columbiformes for which morphological, ecological and genetic data are available. Morphological data include wing, tail, tarsus and bill length (mm) as well as body mass (g). Ecological data includes foraging behaviour (A=arboreal vs T=Terrestrial), habitat type (F=Forest vs O=Open) and island dwelling (C=Continent vs I=Island). The combination of foraging, habitat and island variables define the ecoGroup variable, consisting in five categories (AFI, AFC, TFC, TFI, TOC). The mophological data is log-transformed. Columbidae100phylo.tre A random sample of 100 phylogenetic trees from the posterior distribution, including the 214 species of Columbiformes included in this study.
