We report new mitochondrial DNA sequence data from tarsiers sampled from several
populations, including the extreme northeast and southwest of the range of the Tarsius …

Using a nearly range-wide sampling, we investigated phylogeographic differentiation and
mitochondrial diversity of Testudo horsfieldii, the only tortoise species confined to Central …

The Asian common toad (Duttaphrynus melanostictus) is a human commensal species that
occupies a wide variety of habitats across tropical Southeast Asia. We test the hypothesis …

Members of the family Pteropodidae, also known as Old World fruit bats, are represented in
Africa by 14 genera and 44 species. Here, we sequenced 67 complete mitochondrial …

The six species and three subspecies in the genus Chimarrogale (Soricomorpha: Soricidae)
are commonly referred to as Asiatic water shrews. The Chimarrogale are the most widely …

Aim Stickleback fish exhibit considerable morphological variation within and between
species, and similar armour phenotypes are often found in different taxonomic groups …

The complex evolutionary patterns in the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the most
species-rich shark order, the Carcharhiniformes (ground sharks) has led to challenges in the …

Recently, molecular analyses revealed that African and Eurasian golden jackals are distinct
species. This finding suggests re‐investigation of the phylogenetic relationships and …

In this paper we provide a molecular phylogeny based on three mitochondrial and three
nuclear markers for all long-tailed tit species of the genus Aegithalos including several …

The Charadriiformes, among the most diverse orders of bird, is a good source to research on
evolution. The mitochondrial genome sequencing database has rapidly increased in recent …
