Phylogeographic analysis has become a major tool for investigating historical aspects of
biogeography and population genetic structure. Anuran amphibians are particularly …

Despite recent advances in conservation genetics and related disciplines and the growing
impact that conservation genetics is having in conservation biology, our knowledge on …

In order to contribute to the debate about southern glacial refugia used by temperate species
and more northern refugia used by boreal or cold‐temperate species, we examined the …

In most pan-Eurasiatic species complexes, two phenomena have been traditionally
considered key processes of their cladogenesis and biogeography. First, it is hypothesized …

II. Vicariant Species Formation E. Estimates of Amphibian Species Diversity A. Dichopatric
versus Peripatric V. Correlates, Radiation Trajectories and B. Gene Flow, Dispersal and …

Graph-based analysis is a promising approach for analyzing the functional and structural
connectivity of landscapes. In human-shaped landscapes, species have become vulnerable …

We examined fine‐scale genetic variation among breeding aggregations of the spotted
salamander (Ambystoma maculatum) to quantify dispersal, interpopulation connectivity and …

Background Pleistocene glaciations had considerable impact on phylogeographic patterns
within and among closely related species of many vertebrates. Compared to Europe and …

Human‐caused habitat destruction and modification constitute one of the largest threats to
population persistence and biodiversity, and are also suspected to be the major cause …

The genetic structure of contemporary populations can be shaped by both their history and
current ecological conditions. We assessed the relative importance of postglacial …
