Phylogeny of freshwater viviparid snails in Japan [PDF]
Journal of Molluscan Studies, 2015 We document extensive incongruence between molecular phylogeny and the current taxonomy of the freshwater gastropod family Viviparidae in Japan. A phylogeny based on the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I and 16S rRNA genes for East Asian viviparids comprises three major clades, the two largest of which are composed primarily of paraphyletic or
