Between the Cape Fold Mountains and the deep blue sea: Comparative phylogeography of selected codistributed ectotherms reveals asynchronous cladogenesis
AM Myburgh, SR Daniels - Evolutionary Applications, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
We compare the phylogeographic structure of 13 codistributed ectotherms including four
reptiles (a snake, a legless skink and two tortoise species) and nine invertebrates (six …

When one phenotype is not enough: divergent evolutionary trajectories govern venom variation in a widespread rattlesnake species
Understanding the origin and maintenance of phenotypic variation, particularly across a
continuous spatial distribution, represents a key challenge in evolutionary biology. For this …

Contemporary philosophy and methods for studying speciation and delimiting species
Species delimitation is a first step for realizing the extent of biodiversity and is relevant for all
downstream applications in biology. The production of large genome-scale datasets for non …

Environmental heterogeneity and not vicariant biogeographic barriers generate community‐wide population structure in desert‐adapted snakes
Genetic structure can be influenced by local adaptation to environmental heterogeneity and
biogeographic barriers, resulting in discrete population clusters. Geographic distance …

The biogeography of deep time phylogenetic reticulation
Most phylogenies are typically represented as purely bifurcating. However, as genomic data
have become more common in phylogenetic studies, it is not unusual to find reticulation …

Isolation with asymmetric gene flow during the nonsynchronous divergence of dry forest birds
Dry forest bird communities in South America are often fragmented by intervening mountains
and rainforests, generating high local endemism. The historical assembly of dry forest …

Allopatric divergence and secondary contact with gene flow: a recurring theme in rattlesnake speciation
The study of recently diverged lineages whose geographical ranges come into contact can
provide insight into the early stages of speciation and the potential roles of reproductive …
