Descripción
Amazonian rivers have been more frequently conceptualised as barriers rather than as habitats for birds with their own ecological and biogeographic histories. However, many river-restricted bird species have differentiated within the formidable network formed by the Amazon and its tributaries. Here we demonstrate that the riverine-distributed Crimson-fronted Cardinal (Paroaria baeri) is narrowly distributed along the middle Rio Araguaia basin, where it comes into contact and hybridises with the geographically widespread Red-capped Cardinal (P. gularis). This one-dimensional hybrid zone, which is situated over ca.160 km along the Araguaia and Javaés Rivers, appears to be of recent origin. Admixed individuals between the non-sister P. baeri and P. gularis are phenotypically intermediate between the parental species, and superficially resemble the geographically disjunct and phylogenetically distant Masked Cardinal (P. nigrogenis). Two phenotypically admixed specimens were confirmed as such based on sequences of the mitochondrial Cytb and the Z-linked MUSK gene. Field observations and genetic data indicate that P. baeri × P. gularis hybrids are capable of producing viable offspring, but more data are necessary to confirm hybrid viability and fertility. The non-sister hybridising species P. baeri and P. gularis last shared a common ancestor 1.8–2.8 mya (uncorrected genetic p-distance of 4%), which corresponds closely to when the Araguaia/Tocantins river basin last discharged directly into the Amazon.
