Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been the workhorse of research in phylogeography for
almost two decades. However, concerns with basing evolutionary interpretations on mtDNA …

We review recent trends in phylogeography and phylogenetics and argue that these two
fields stand to be reunited by the common yardstick provided by sequence and SNP data …

Nuclear sequence data, often from multiple loci, are increasingly being employed in
analyses of population structure and history, yet there has been relatively little evaluation of …

A new extinct Late Quaternary platyrrhine from Haiti, Insulacebus toussaintiana, is described
here from the most complete Caribbean subfossil primate dentition yet recorded …

Hispaniola is a geotectonically complex island consisting of two palaeo‐islands that docked
c. 10 Ma, with a further geological boundary subdividing the southern palaeo‐island into …

Understanding the drivers and limits of species radiations is a crucial goal of evolutionary
genetics and molecular ecology, yet research on this topic has been hampered by the …

Hispaniola once had a large and diverse endemic rodent community. Today, a single
species, Plagiodontia aedium, survives alongside invasive murids. Ecological adaptations …

Understanding the dynamics of the Late Quaternary Caribbean mammal extinction event is
complicated by continuing uncertainty over the taxonomic status of many species …

With its large size, complex topography and high number of avian endemics, Hispaniola
appears to be a likely candidate for the in situ speciation of its avifauna, despite the …

Aim To determine the evolutionary history, relationships and distinctiveness of allopatric
populations of Hispaniolan solenodon (Solenodon paradoxus), a highly threatened …
