Diplomystidae is an early-diverged family of freshwater catfish endemic to southern South
America. We have recently collected five juvenile specimens belonging to this family from …

Distinguishing neutral and adaptive genetic variation is one of the main challenges in
investigating processes shaping population structure in the wild, and landscape genomics …

Aim The disjunct distributions of freshwater organisms along coastal drainages are usually
explained by palaeodrainages formed during sea‐level retreats that connected currently …

Climate changes at larger scales have influenced dispersal and range shifts of many taxa in
East Asia. The fascicularis species group of macaques is composed of four species and is …

Analysing the geographical distribution of evolutionary linages can reveal the potential
locations of past refugia and colonisation routes and thus can improve understanding of …

The current conservation status of Percichthys trucha (Creole perch) is Least Concern,
although the population trend is considered to be decreasing. We conducted an extensive …

Genetic information on species can inform decision making regarding conservation of
biodiversity since the response of organisms to changing environments depend, in part, on …

Climate changes during the late Pleistocene influenced the demography and distribution of
species in Patagonia. During the last glacial maximum (LGM), ice sheets covered a great …

The identification of closely related species with partially overlapping distributions is
fundamental for effective conservation. Here we analyzed 28 sequenced microsatellites …

Life-history traits are among the most important factors affecting population abundance and
genetic diversity of species. Here, we analysed the genetic patterns of two Galaxias species …
