Despite their traditional and continuing prominence in studies of interordinal mammalian
phylogenetics, treeshrews (order Scandentia) remain relatively unstudied with respect to …

Although the supraordinal relationships of Scandentia (treeshrews) have been studied in
great detail from both morphological and molecular perspectives, the phylogenetic …

Resolving the phylogeny of treeshrews (Order Scandentia) has historically proven difficult, in
large part because of access to specimens and samples from critical taxa. We used …

mephitis, and 21 other arctoid carnivorans, representing Mustelidae (Mustelinae: Mustela …

The increasing use of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) to explore and test species limits among
morphologically similar species is potentially compromised by phenomena poorly reflective …

Genetic variation within the macroura species group, which includes Sminthopsis macroura,
S. virginiae, S. douglasi, and S. bindi, was examined through analyses of complete …
