The science that tries to reconstruct phylogenetic trees and thus discover clades is called phylogenetics or cladistics, the latter term being derived from " clade " by Ernst Mayr ( 1965 ).

Mayr never won a Nobel Prize, but he noted that there is no Prize for evolutionary biology and that Darwin would not have received one, either.

Mayr was an unconventional atheist, stating he was an atheist towards " the idea of a personal God " because " there is nothing that supports "

As Ernst W. Mayr observes, " transspecific evolution is nothing but an extrapolation and magnification of the events that take place within populations and species ... it is misleading to make a distinction between the causes of micro-and macroevolution ”.

Darwin's theory of evolution is based on key facts and the inferences drawn from them, which biologist Ernst Mayr summarised as follows:

In an effort to unify the above described equations the Mayr equation is rewritten as:

For Mayr, the healthful antithesis of essentialism in biology is " population thinking ".

Mayr gets 16 citations and more in the two later editions ; all three published outstanding and relevant books some years later, and their contribution to the synthesis is unquestionable.

* Falco peregrinus nesiotes, described by Mayr in 1941, is found in Fiji and probably also Vanuatu and New Caledonia.

This is an example of the parapatric speciation model described by Ernst Mayr.

It was first named by Gerald Mayr, Herculano Alvarenga and Cécile Mourer-Chauviré in 2011 and the type species is Hoazinavis lacustris.

* Mayr, E. What Evolution is.

Peripatric speciation was originally proposed by Ernst Mayr, and is related to the founder effect, because small living populations may undergo selection bottlenecks.

The Growth of Biological Thought is a book written by Ernst Mayr, first published in 1982.

Mother Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin ( Mayr Tajar Surb Ejmiatsin ; originally known as the Holy Mother of God Church, Surb Astvatsatsin Yekeghetsi ) is a 4th century Armenian church in the town of Ejmiatsin, Armenia.

Jean Delacour and Ernst Mayr, in their 1945 revision of the family Anatidae considered it a somewhat abnormal member of the Anatini ( or river-ducks ) group because the hind toe is slightly lobed, display behaviour and the tendency to feed at the surface.

That same month Hitler wrote what is often deemed his first anti-Semitic text, requested by Mayr for one Adolf Gemlich, who participated in the same " educational courses " Hitler had taken part in.

According to Ernst W. Mayr, " a subspecies is a geographic race that is sufficiently different taxonomically to be worthy of a separate name "

One of them, the Modified Vaccinia Ankara ( MVA ) virus, is a highly attenuated strain of vaccinia virus that was developed towards the end of the campaign for the eradication of smallpox by Professor Anton Mayr in Germany.

Ernst Mayr approached the problem with a new definition for the concept of species.

In February 1923, Mayr passed his high school examination ( Abitur ) and his mother rewarded him with a pair of binoculars.

The heckling of this German foreigner was tremendous, but he gave tit for tat, and any modern picture of Dr E. Mayr as a very formal person does not square with my memory of the 1930s.

Mayr said of his own involvement with the local birdwatchers: " In those early years in New York when I was a stranger in a big city, it was the companionship and later friendship which I was offered in the Linnean Society that was the most important thing in my life.

Mayr encouraged her to correspond with European ornithologists and helped her in her landmark study on song sparrows.

As a traditionally trained biologist with little mathematical experience, Mayr was often highly critical of early mathematical approaches to evolution such as those of J. B. S.

In 1995 he was awarded the Linnean Medal by The Linnean Society and in 1999 he was awarded the Crafoord Prize jointly with Ernst Mayr and George C. Williams.

Punctuated equilibrium differs from Mayr's hypothesis mainly in that Eldredge and Gould placed considerably greater emphasis on stasis, whereas Mayr was generally concerned with explaining the morphological discontinuity ( or " sudden jumps ") found in the fossil record.

However, such usage has been described by some as incorrect ; with Ernst Mayr writing in 1984:

* Mayr, Gerald ( 2004 ): A partial skeleton of a new fossil loon ( Aves, Gaviiformes ) from the early Oligocene of Germany with preserved stomach content.

In the 1920s Rensch, who like Mayr did field work in Indonesia, analyzed the geographic distribution of polytypic species and complexes of closely related species paying particular attention to how variations between different populations correlated with local environmental factors such as differences in climate.

The Aegothelidae ( owlet-nightjars ) with about a dozen living species in one genus are apparently closer to the Apodiformes ( Mayr 2002 ); these and the Caprimulgiformes are closely related, being grouped together as Cypselomorphae HTML abstract

At least the Eocoraciidae are very basal, but the Late Eocene ( some 35 mya ) Geranopteridae form a superfamily Coracioidea with the extant rollers and ground-rollers already ( Mayr & Mourer-Chauviré 2000 ).

The evolution of these wing characteristics has provided the hummingbird with ideal wings for hovering ( Mayr 2002 ).

The hummingbirds, swifts and crested swifts share other anatomical similarities with one another as well as similarities ( notably as to the skull ) with their probable closest living relatives, the owlet-nightjars ( Mayr, 2002 ).

He collaborated extensively with such artists as Albert Mayr, Francesco Michi, Alvin Curran, Mauro Orselli, Michiko Hirayama and others.

Her first research paper was published with the help of Mayr and Erwin Stresemann in the German Journal für Ornithologie in 1933 and 1934 because American journals would not accept such long articles.

The opera's Austrian premiere was given by the Vienna State Opera on the following 8 April under the baton of Schuch with Marie Gutheil-Schoder as Octavian, and Richard Mayr as Baron Ochs.

Peters died before finishing the work, and the last volumes, as well as updates to some of the first, were completed by Ernst Mayr, James Greenway, Melvin Alvah Traylor, Jr. and others, with the final being volume 16 published in 1987.

This became the longest and greatest of all Beck ’ s expeditions and, as with the " Academy " expeditions, he was joined by many other accomplished biologists with complementary skills, including E. H. Quayle, J. G. Correia, Dr F. P. Drowne, Hannibal Hamlin, Guy Richards, Ernst Mayr, E. H. Bryan Jr., and others.

An in-depth mitochondrial DNA population analysis study stated: “ According to the fossil record, the Red Panda diverged from its common ancestor with bears about 40 million years ago ( Mayr 1986 ).
