Microscopic bird feather structures have been used as source of data for bird identification since early the 20th century. Such data have also been applied for bird systematics and evolutionary history, with certain taxa exhibiting diagnostic suites in microscopic characters that aid on the delimitation of orders, families and even at species-level. Additional fields that benefit from feather microstructure include areas such as animal ecology, forensics, archeology, and criminalistics, with the latter mostly focused on the international traffic of wild animals.
