Systematics, phylogeny and biogeography of Mesoamerican and Caribbean freshwater gastropods (Cerithioidea: Thiaridae and Pachychilidae)
In this work I reviewed the systematics of two distinct lineages of Mesoamerica and Caribbean freshwater snails within the gastropod superfamily Cerithioidea: Thiaridae Gill, 1871 and Pachychilidae Troschel, 1858. Through comparative analyses of morphological, anatomical and molecular genetic data, I found that the family Thiaridae is represented by the genus Hemisinus in the Greater Antilles. ...
متن کاملMesoamerican tree squirrels evolution (Rodentia: Sciuridae): a molecular phylogenetic analysis.
The tribe Sciurini comprehends the genera Sciurus, Syntheosiurus, Microsciurus, Tamiasciurus and Rheinthrosciurus. The phylogenetic relationships within Sciurus have been only partially done, and the relationship between Mesoamerican species remains unsolved. The phylogenetic relationships of the Mesoamerican tree squirrels were examined using molecular data. Sequence data publicly available (1...
متن کاملMolecular systematics and historical biogeography of tree boas (Corallus spp.).
Inferring the evolutionary and biogeographic history of taxa occurring in a particular region is one way to determine the processes by which the biodiversity of that region originated. Tree boas of the genus Corallus are an ancient clade and occur throughout Central and South America and the Lesser Antilles, making it an excellent group for investigating Neotropical biogeography. Using sequence...
متن کاملMolecular phylogeny of the Forcipulatacea (Asteroidea: Echinodermata): systematics and biogeography
We present a comprehensively sampled three-gene phylogeny of the monophyletic Forcipulatacea, one of three major lineages within the crown-group Asteroidea. We present substantially more Southern Hemisphere and deep-sea taxa than were sampled in previous molecular studies of this group. Morphologically distinct groups, such as the Brisingida and the Zoroasteridae, are upheld as monophyletic. Br...
متن کاملMolecular systematics and biogeography of the Neotropical monkey genus, Alouatta.
We take advantage of the broad distribution of howler monkeys from Mexico to Argentina to provide a historical biogeographical analysis on a regional scale that encompasses the entire Neotropics. The phylogenetic relationships among 9 of the 10 recognized Alouatta species were inferred using three mitochondrial and two nuclear genes. The nuclear gene regions provided no phylogenetic resolution ...
