Freshwater sculpins, grouped by their common ecological characteristic of freshwater
habitats, comprise the species from the genera Cottus, Trachidermus, Mesocottus and …

The conservation of threatened species must be underpinned by phylogeographic
knowledge. This need is epitomized by the freshwater fish Carassius carassius, which is in …

In a distribution‐wide phylogeographic survey of the field vole (Microtus agrestis), 75
specimens from 56 localities across Eurasia were examined for DNA sequence variation …

A species‐wide phylogeographical study of the root vole (Microtus oeconomus) was
performed using the whole 1140 base pair mitochondrial (mt) cytochrome b gene. We …

Four hundred Gyrodactylus species have been formally described, but the estimated
number of species in this fish ectoparasite genus of Monogenean Platyhelminthes is more …

We compared mitochondrial DNA and gill‐raker number variation in populations of the
European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus (L.) species complex to illuminate their …

Chytridiomycota is the most species-rich phylum of basal lineage fungi involved in vital
processes in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Still, the diversity and richness of this …

In the ancient Lake Baikal in East Siberia, cottoid fishes have diversified into an endemic
flock of 33 species. From an ancestral shallow-water, benthic life-style, Baikalian cottoids …

To assess the population genetic structure of the three‐spined stickleback, Gasterosteus
aculeatus, variability at 18 microsatellite loci was examined in 1724 individuals from 74 …
