Northern Goshawk Diversity and Connectivity Among the Forests of the Northern Great Basin

Even highly mobile species like birds can fail to disperse across fragmented landscapes. Within the naturally fragmented forests of the northern Great Basin, unique species such as the South Hills Crossbill, have evolved in isolation, and other species there may exhibit unique genetic diversity. Bec...
