Phylogeny and historical biogeography of African ground squirrels: the role of climate change in the evolution of Xerus.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2005

Herron M D, Waterman J M, Parkinson C L

Abstract excerpt

We used phylogenetic and phylogeographical methods to infer relationships among African ground squirrels of the genus Xerus. Using Bayesian, maximum-parsimony, nested clade and coalescent analyses of cytochrome b sequences, we inferred interspecific relationships, evaluated the specific distinctness of Cape (Xerus inauris) and mountain (Xerus princeps) ground squirrels, and tested hypotheses for historical...
