Genetic variation and differentiation in the Japanese five-lined skink, Eumeces latiscutatus (Reptilia: Squamata).

Zoological science - 1 Jan 2003

Motokawa Junko, Hikida Tsutomu

Abstract excerpt

The genetic variation in Eumeces latiscutatus from the main islands of Japan and the northern Ryukyus was investigated and compared with that of its close relatives (E. okadae and E. marginatus) using allozyme data. All three samples from the northern Tokara Island Group, currently identified as E. latiscutatus, were shown to belong to E. marginatus and not to E. latiscutatus. The non-monophyly of the northern...
