Species diversity and endemism in the Daphnia of Argentina: A genetic investigation

Mostrar todas las versiones(3)

Although the temperate regions of South America are known to have a diverse daphniid fauna, there has been no genetic evaluation of the existing taxonomic system or of the affinities between the North and South American faunas. The present study analyses mitochondrial DNA sequences and allozyme vari...

The present study analyses mitochondrial DNA sequences and allozyme variation to investigate species diversity in 176 Daphnia populations from Argentina. This work established the presence of at least 15 species in Argentina, six of which are either undescribed or are currently misidentified and two of which represent range extensions of North American taxa.

In the latter cases, the close genetic similarity between populations from North and South America indicates the recent exchange of propagules between the continents.
