Omnivory in birds is a macroevolutionary sink
Diet is known to influence speciation, but much less is known about how this process operates at macroevolutionary scales. Using a global dietary database of birds, Burin et al. show that omnivory is associated with higher extinction and lower speciation rates compared to other guilds.
