Cryptic biodiversity and phylogeographical patterns in a snapping shrimp species complex.
Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2006

Abstract excerpt
Recent investigations suggest that marine biodiversity may be much higher than earlier estimates, and an important hidden source of diversity in marine systems is the phenomenon of cryptic species complexes. Such complexes are informative models for research into the evolutionary processes that govern species compositions of marine fauna. The snapping shrimp genera Alpheus and Synalpheus are known to harbour...
