Genetic and morphometric differentiation between island and mainland southern elephant seal populations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Feb 2001

Hoelzel A R, Campagna C, Arnbom T

Abstract excerpt

We compare genetic (both nuclear and mitochondrial) and morphometric measures between two putative populations of southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina), and interpret the results in the context of data from mark-recapture and satellite-telemetric studies. One population is on the Argentine mainland, while the other is 2,400 km away on South Georgia island. We found pronounced differentiation at the...
