Distribution modeling of the hybrid sister taxa in red-headed bunting and black-headed bunting, Order Passeriformes

Distribution modeling of the hybrid sister taxa in red-headed bunting and black-headed bunting, Order Passeriformes. Environmental Science. 19 (4): 269-286. According to the results, it can be acknowledged that the area of suitable habitats for Embriza melanocephala species in the west was less than today, which according to studies, internal and climatic factors were effective in moving both species and hybridization area to the west. The results indicate decreasing habitat suitability for the studied species in both periods (the last ice age until now and now until 2050). Conclusion: Understanding the factors influencing the suitability of wildlife habitats is essential. Some changes due to rapid ecosystem manipulation are seen in the new distribution of birds. In general, wildlife planning and conservation strategies should monitor the factors affecting habitats and maintain and manage these factors in order to prevent biodiversity loss.
