Evolution of Crematogaster sordidula (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) Ants in the Mediterranean Region During Plio‐Pleistocene Climatic Changes

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding insect responses to global climate change involves identifying strategies used during past climate oscillations. Phylogeography offers a powerful framework to unravel how historical climatic and geological events have shaped the spatial genetic patterns of species, providing critical insights into evolutionary processes, whereas ...

Phylogeography, colonization and population history of the Midas cichlid species complex (Amphilophus spp.) in the Nicaraguan crater lakes

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Elucidation of the mechanisms driving speciation requires detailed knowledge about the phylogenetic relationships and phylogeography of the incipient species within their entire ranges as well as their colonization history.

Systematics of Marmosa Subgenus Micoureus With Emphasis in ‘rapposa’ Group (Didelphidae, Marmosini): Geographic Variation and Revalidation of M. budini

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

Phase Transition in Sexual Reproduction and Biological Evolution

, 2008
Using Monte Carlo model of biological evolution we have discovered that populations can switch between two different strategies of their genomes' evolution; Darwinian purifying selection and complementing the haplotypes. The first one is exploited in the

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Sympatric Speciation in Snails; a Largely Neglected Model [PDF]

Evolution, 1988
Usually, shells of snails are clearly either dextral or sinistral. That means that, if one looks at the apex, the whorls increase in width clockwise or counterclockwise, respectively. In a dextral shell, the soft parts of the animal have the proximal part of the genitalia situated asymmetrically at the right side of the head.

COEVOLUTION IN «A PREDATOR–PREY» SYSTEM: AN ECOGENETIC MODEL

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015
In most natural populations, intraspecies competition for natural resources is supplemented by a predator impact. We suppose that the mode and intensity of the interaction between a prey and its predator affects the course of competitive or sympatric ...
