Here we use an integrative approach, including coalescent-based methods, isolation–migration and species distribution models, to infer population structure, divergence times and diversification in the two species of the genus Cymbilaimus (Aves, Thamnophilidae). Our results support a recent and rapid diversification with both incomplete lineage sorting and gene flow shaping the evolutionary history of Cymbilaimus. The spatio-temporal pattern of cladogenesis suggests that Cymbilaimus originated in the north/western portion of cis-Andean South America and then diversified into the Brazilian Shield and Central America after consolidation of the modern Amazonian drainage and the Andean range. This evolutionary scenario is explained by cycles of range expansion and dispersal, followed by isolation, and recurrent gene flow, during the last 1.2 Myr. Our results agree with those recently reported for other closely related suboscine lineages, whereby the window of introgression between closely related taxa remains open for up to a few million years after their original split. In Cymbilaimus, introgression was recurrent between C. lineatus and C. sanctaemariae, even after they acquired vocal and ecological differentiation, supporting the claim that at least in Neotropical suboscines, full reproductive compatibility may take millions of years to evolve and cannot be interpreted as synonymous with a lack of speciation.
