How Sedentary are Greywing Francolins (Francolinus africanus)?

Phasianids are considered to be sedentary birds with limited dispersal so that populations may be expected to show genetic isolation by distance. To test this, we examined genetic variability in 618 greywing francolins (Francolinus africanus) at 24 localities over a 1,500 km2area. We subdivided the...
