Combining nuclear (nuDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) markers has improved the
power of molecular data to test phylogenetic and phylogeographic hypotheses and has …

Despite taxonomy's 250‐year history, the past 20 years have borne witness to remarkable
advances in technology and techniques, as well as debate. DNA barcoding has generated a …

A complete list of bat records available from Iran was compiled from literature and from new
records, based on field studies and examination of museum specimens. The record review …

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 …

Global climate changes during the Quaternary reveal much about broader evolutionary
effects of environmental change. Detailed regional studies reveal how evolutionary lineages …

Integrative taxonomy aims to document biodiversity by incorporating all useful characters to
increase confidence in hypotheses about phylogenetic relationships. In this study, we …

Taxonomy—the description, naming, and classification of organisms—and systematics—the
study of the evolutionary relationships of organisms—are both crucial components in …

The hypothesis of Pleistocene forest refugia was tested using comparative phylogeography
of Scotonycterini, a fruit bat tribe endemic to Africa containing four species: Scotonycteris …

Identification of intraspecific conservation units and incorporating the distribution of genetic
diversity into management plans are crucial requirements for assessing effective protection …

We used the mitochondrial control region and nuclear microsatellites to assess the
distribution patterns, population structure, demography and landscape genetics for the …
