We provide a review and synthesis of key findings in phylogeographic research on terrestrial
animals in the Aegean archipelago (Greece) and surrounding regions (Greek mainland …

Aim We seek to demonstrate that whilst information derived from phylogeographic and
landscape genetic approaches has been used broadly to further ecological and evolutionary …

Modern attempts to produce biogeographic maps focus on the distribution of species, and
the maps are typically drawn without phylogenetic considerations. Here, we generate a …

Species are the fundamental units of biology, ecology and conservation, and progress in
these fields is therefore hampered by widespread taxonomic bias and uncertainty …

Aim The mesic biome, encompassing both rain forest and open sclerophyllous forests, is
central to understanding the evolution of Australia's terrestrial biota and has long been …

The recently introduced term 'integrative taxonomy'refers to taxonomy that integrates all
available data sources to frame species limits. We survey current taxonomic methods …

Research into differences in introgression potential among autosomal, sex-linked, and
mtDNA loci is an active field of inquiry in both model and non-model species. At the same …

Abstract Background The Palearctic region supports relatively few avian species, yet recent
molecular studies have revealed that cryptic lineages likely still persist unrecognized. A …

DNA sequence studies frequently reveal evidence of cryptic lineages in morphologically
uniform species, many of which turn out to be evolutionarily distinct species. The Common …

Advances in sequencing technology and phylogenetics have revolutionised avian biology
by providing an evolutionary framework for studying natural groupings. In the parrots …
