Phylogeographical patterns of genetic divergence and speciation in African mole-rats (Family: Bathyergidae).

Molecular ecology - 1 Mar 2004

Faulkes C G, Verheyen E, Verheyen W, Jarvis J U M, Bennett N C

Abstract excerpt

African mole-rats are subterranean Hystricomorph rodents, distributed widely throughout sub-Saharan Africa, and displaying a range of social and reproductive strategies from solitary dwelling to the 'insect-like' sociality of the naked mole-rat, Heterocephalus glaber. Both molecular systematic studies of Rodentia and the fossil record of bathyergids indicate an ancient origin for the family. This study uses an...
