Fine‐scale patterns of genetic structure in three species of forest birds reveal dynamic Pleistocene history within an Amazonian interfluve

Ibis, EarlyView.
Phylogeographical studies of Amazonian birds have revealed large intraspecific diversity, even within recognized areas of endemism. To understand the origin and organization of Amazonian diversity, including the influence of current and historical landscapes, we need to evaluate fine‐scale patterns of genetic diversity in relation to detailed ...

Considerations and distributional innovations for some taxa of the genus Parapholis (Poaceae) in the Adriatic basin with special reference to Parapholis strigosa, for which a new infraspecific taxon is proposed

Natural History Sciences
The distribution of Parapholis strigosa (Dumort.) C.E.Hubb. in the Adriatic basin has been analysed. After the investigations by Hylander and Runemark, further collections were made, particularly during the years 1991-2002, and in 2017-2018 limited to ...

A novel taxon selection method, aimed at minimizing recombination, clarifies the discovery of a new sub‐population of Helicobacter pylori from Australia

Evolutionary Applications, 2020
We present a novel method for taxon selection, the aim being to minimize problems arising from highly recombinant species such as Helicobacter pylori.

Speciation of European bullheads (Cottus spp.): The next problem for taxonomy of northern freshwater fishes

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract High morphological and ecological diversity displayed by European bullheads led Freyhof et al. (2005) to describe 15 nominal species. However, the basis for declaring these nominal species is contentious due to a lack of rigorous statistical analysis of morphological variations among populations, limitations in the inferences made from ...

The Role of Gene Flow in the Diversification of the Monkey Treefrog Complex Across the South American Dry Diagonal

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,

First insight of genetic diversity, phylogeographic relationships, and population structure of marine sponge Chondrosia reniformis from the eastern and western Mediterranean coasts of Tunisia

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Despite the strategic localization of Tunisia in the Mediterranean Sea, no phylogeographic study on sponges has been investigated along its shores. The demosponge Chondrosia reniformis, descript only morphologically along Tunisian coasts, was chosen to ...
