Phylogeographic patterns of temperate species from the Mediterranean peninsulas have
been investigated intensively. Nevertheless, as more phylogeographies become available …

The newts Triturus vulgaris and Triturus montandoni are sister species that exhibit
contrasting levels of intraspecific morphological variation. Triturus vulgaris has a broad …

Newts of the genus Triturus (Amphibia, Caudata, Salamandridae) are distributed across
Europe and adjacent Asia. In spite of its prominence as a model system for evolutionary …

Genetic variation over 40 protein loci and 46 populations representing three taxa of crested
newts revealed moderate genetic distances between Triturus carnifex carnifex, T. c …

We assess the role of the Carpathians as an extra-Mediterranean glacial refugium for the
crested newt Triturus cristatus. We combine a multilocus phylogeography (one mitochondrial …

Crested newts of the Triturus karelinii group occur in a phylogeographically understudied
region: the Near East. Controversy surrounds the systematic position of these newts within …

Introduction The major climatic oscillations during the Quaternary Ice Age heavily influenced
the distribution of species and left their mark on intraspecific genetic diversity. Past range …

Recent phylogeographical studies have re-evaluated the role of refugia in central and
northern Europe for glacial persistence and postglacial assembly of temperate biota. Yet, on …

Genetic variation in 13 populations of the Alpine newt, Triturus alpestris, was assessed at
the northeastern margin of its range (southern Poland). Variation at six microsatellite loci …

Islands are hotspots of biodiversity, with a disproportionately high fraction of endemic
lineages, often of ancient origin. Nevertheless, intra‐island phylogeographies are …
