Shell shape of the land snail Cornu aspersum in North Africa: unexpected evidence of a phylogeographical splitting.

Heredity - 1 Sept 2003

Madec L, Bellido A, Guiller A

Abstract excerpt

Anatomical and molecular characters used to differentiate populations of the land snail Cornu aspersum (Helix aspersa) exhibit, in the western Mediterranean, definite and concordant patterns of correlation with geography. Scenarios involving Pliocene geological changes and postglacial expansion d...
