Museomics help resolving the phylogeny of snowfinches (Aves, Passeridae, Montifringilla and allies)

Mitogenome sequencing was performed at the Molecular Laboratory Senckenberg Dresden (SGN-SNSD-Mol-Lab). We thank S. Birks from the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture (Seattle, USA) and A.

Description
Summary:Mitogenome sequencing was performed at the Molecular Laboratory Senckenberg Dresden (SGN-SNSD-Mol-Lab). We thank S. Birks from the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture (Seattle, USA) and A. Lischke (Switzerland) for providing further samples. We would also like to thank C. Bettega for her help in collecting blood samples in Spain. MMD collected blood samples under the permission #2016/032415 of the Principality of Asturias, PL under the permit CO/08/058/2012 of Picos de Europa National Park. Tissue samples from Switzerland were collected from birds that were incidentally found dead within the research project 530200 on the population dynamics of snowfinches of the Swiss Ornithological Institute. Voluntary notification of access and utilization of genetic resources from Switzerland was submitted to the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) and is registered under the register ID N210001. We cordially thank F. Bosshard for advice and support during the formal registration process. We thank M. Stubbe for information on the Mongolian-German Biological Expeditions. We are particularly grateful to I. Overcast (Virginia Museum of Natural History, Martinsville, VA, USA) for his kind support with some specifications of ipyrad protocols.
