We are using DNA barcodes as the source of mitochondrial DNA, complemented with nuclear genomic data, colour and vocalizations, to study the relevance of glacial cycles in southern South America at different geographic and taxonomic scales. Methods: We analyzed over 9000 avian DNA barcode sequences belonging to more than 2000 species of birds of the Americas for a large-scale evaluation of their evolutionary patterns in the Andean-Patagonian region. We then studied in detail three species broadly distributed in the Neotropics with a focus on their southern populations: the Southern Lapwing (Vanellus chilensis), the House Wren (Troglodytes aedon) and the Rufous-collared Sparrow (Zonotrichia capensis). Results: The analysis of closely related species showed that the Andean-Patagonian region has a higher proportion of recently diverged species (less COI genetic distance) and presents less phylogeographic structure than the rest of the Neotropics, suggesting a relevant role of glaciations. This role was also evident in the detailed analyses of the three focal species. All had lineages endemic to Patagonia, although with differences in the timing of their separation, and the Southern Lapwing and the Rufous-collared Sparrow were also differentiated in plumage colouration or song. In the House Wren, the colonization of the Malvinas Islands and the lack of further gene flow with continental Patagonia led to speciation in the archipelago. Finally, northward postglacial expansions from Patagonia led to secondary contact with gene flow, resulting in intermediate colouration or songs in the three species. Conclusion: This study highlights the relevance of glaciations for avian diversification and speciation in southern South America and the role of DNA barcoding for the initial screening and posterior study of evolutionary patterns. http://rid.unrn.edu.ar/handle/20.500.12049/13347 en 9th International Barcode of Life Conference
