Abstract excerpt
Phylogenetic analyses were performed on partial mitochondrial (16S) gene sequences that included new 16S data for 23 exemplars of the freshwater pulmonate snail genus Lymnaea sensu lato and putative outgroup species. This procedure yielded relatively congruent patterns of evolutionary divergence and phylogenetic affinities, and greater resolution and support for many lineages at different levels of divergence...
