Cryptic species as a window into the paradigm shift of the species concept
C Fišer, CT Robinson, F Malard - Molecular ecology, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
The species concept is the cornerstone of biodiversity science, and any paradigm shift in the
delimitation of species affects many research fields. Many biologists now are embracing a …

A subterranean adaptive radiation of amphipods in Europe
Š Borko, P Trontelj, O Seehausen, A Moškrič… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Adaptive radiations are bursts of evolutionary species diversification that have contributed to
much of the species diversity on Earth. An exception is modern Europe, where descendants …

Continental-scale patterns of hyper-cryptic diversity within the freshwater model taxon Gammarus fossarum (Crustacea, Amphipoda)
Traditional morphological diagnoses of taxonomic status remain widely used while an
increasing number of studies show that one morphospecies might hide cryptic diversity, ie …

The late blooming amphipods: Global change promoted post-Jurassic ecological radiation despite Palaeozoic origin
The ecological radiation of amphipods is striking among crustaceans. Despite high diversity,
global distribution and key roles in all aquatic environments, little is known about their …

Pronounced changes of subterranean biodiversity patterns along a Late Pleistocene glaciation gradient
Understanding spatial patterns of biodiversity within the context of long‐term climatic shifts is
of high importance, particularly in the face of contemporary climate change. In comparison to …

The legacy of a vanished sea: a high level of diversification within a European freshwater amphipod species complex driven by 15 My of Paratethys regression
The formation of continental Europe in the Neogene was due to the regression of the Tethys

Neogene paleogeography provides context for understanding the origin and spatial distribution of cryptic diversity in a widespread Balkan freshwater amphipod
Background The Balkans are a major worldwide biodiversity and endemism hotspot. Among
the freshwater biota, amphipods are known for their high cryptic diversity. However, little is …

Adrift across tectonic plates: molecular phylogenetics supports the ancient Laurasian origin of old limnic crangonyctid amphipods
Crangonyctidae is a speciose and almost exclusively freshwater Holarctic family of
amphipod crustaceans. Its members inhabit groundwater as well as epigean biotopes with …
