The influence of ecology and genetics on behavioral variation in salamander populations across the Eastern Continental Divide.

The American naturalist - 1 Aug 2004

Rissler Leslie J, Wilbur Henry M, Taylor Douglas R

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the unique contributions of ecology and history to the distribution of species within communities requires an integrative approach. The Eastern Continental Divide in southwestern Virginia separates river drainages that differ in species composition: the more aquatic, predatory Desmognathus quadramaculatus is present only in the New River drainage (which drains to the Gulf of Mexico), while...
