Abstract excerpt
The phylogeny of carabid beetles in the genus Pamborus (Coleoptera: Carabidae), which is endemic to Australia, was studied using one nuclear (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase) and two mitochondrial (16S ribosomal RNA and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5) gene sequences, with a cladistic analysis of morphological data. Fourteen species that were morphologically distinguishable were used as ingroup taxa, and...
