(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2017)© 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Aim: We use an integrative biogeographical approach to further understand the evolution of an important Southern Ocean marine benthic element, the limpet genus Nacella (Mollusca: Patellogastropoda). ...
-
(Magnolia Press, 2017)The genus Ectinogonia Spinola, 1837 is a genus mainly found in Chile; it currently contains 17 species. Recent exploration in the Andes Mountain Range of the Bio Bio Region in Chile have resulted in the collection of ...
-
(Public Library Science, 2018-06)One of the most relevant characteristics of the extant Southern Ocean fauna is its resiliency to survive glacial processes of the Quaternary. These climatic events produced catastrophic habitat reductions and forced some ...
-
(2011)The impact of recent habitat fragmentation on population genetic diversity and structure has often been studied, mainly related to anthropogenic causes; however its long-term effect has been much less evaluated. In this ...
-
(Public Library Science, 2016)Glacial episodes of the Quaternary, and particularly the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) drastically altered the distribution of the Southern-Hemisphere biota, principally at higher latitudes. The irregular coastline of Patagonia ...
-
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020)Penguins are the only extant family of flightless diving birds. They currently comprise at least 18 species, distributed from polar to tropical environments in the Southern Hemisphere. The history of their diversification ...
-
(Nature, 2020)The matrilineal long-finned pilot whale presents an antitropical distribution and is divided into two subspecies, one in the temperate seas of the Southern Hemisphere and the other restricted to the North Atlantic and ...
-
(Elsevier, 2018-05)Coastal resident and pelagic nonresident bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, have been described in north-central Chile. Using long-term residence data (over 13 years of photo-identification) and genetic mtDNA ...
-
(Inter-Research, 2004)Life history traits (absence of larval phase, small size and hermaphroditism) do not predispose Amphipholis squamata to dispersal, yet paradoxically it has a nearly cosmopolitan distribution. Recent phylogenetic analyses ...
-
(Public Library Science, 2016)Background Marine species have colonized extreme environments during evolution such as freshwater habitats. The amphidromous teleost fish, Galaxias maculatus is found mainly migrating between estuaries and rivers, but ...
-
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)© The Author(s) 2017. Marine benthic organisms inhabit a heterogeneous environment in which connectivity between populations occurs mainly through dispersive larval stages, while local selective pressures acting on early ...
-
(Academic Press Inc., 2017)© 2016 Elsevier Inc. Two main hypotheses have been debated about the biogeography of the Southern Ocean: (1) the Antarctic Polar Front (APF), acting as a barrier between Antarctic and sub-Antarctic provinces, and (2) the ...
-
(Springer Verlag, 2017)© 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. Broadcasting is the predominant spawning behavior among benthic marine invertebrates, mainly associated with planktotrophic and planktonic lecitotrophic development. Broadcasting ...
-
Mitochondrial DNA variation and systematics of the guanaco (Lama guanicoe, Artiodactyla: Camelidae) (2008)Guanacos (Lama guanicoe) are the most important native herbivorous species in the South American steppes and the dominant ungulate in a fauna rich in rodents but poor in large mammal species. Between 2 and 4 subspecies are ...
-
(2013)Aim: Study one of the most widespread biological invasions by reconstructing the molecular phylogeographic history of non-native populations of the land snail Cornu aspersum in austral South America. Specifically, we wished ...
-
(Wildlife Disease Association, Inc., 2019)The Andean cat (Leopardus jacobita) is one of the most threatened and least known wild felids in the world. Using molecular and serologic tests, we screened a free-ranging Andean cat for 17 pathogens of conservation concern. ...
-
(Elsevier, 2014)The southern tip of South America and Antarctica are particularly interesting due to many genera and also species currently sharing between both areas. The genus Nacella (Patellogastropoda: Nacellidae) is distributed in ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2016-04)A growing body of evidence showing that individuals of some social species live in non-kin groups suggests kin selection is not required in all species for sociality to evolve. Here, we investigate 2 populations of Octodon ...
-
(Academic Press Inc., 2005)We addressed phylogenetic relationships in the genus Trachurus using cytochrome b gene and D-loop sequences. The trees showed five groups: (1) the Southwest Pacific species (T. japonicus, T. novaezelandiae, and T. declivis); ...
