Abstract
► We reconstruct a phylogeny of Cinclosoma using molecular markers. ► Multilocus gene and species trees support recognition of seven species. ► We infer that arid-adapted taxa evolved from forest-adapted ancestors. ► We investigate a 'leapfrog' distribution in plumage patterns. ► A hybridization event between C. castanotum and C. marginatum was identified.
