Pillars of Hercules: is the Atlantic-Mediterranean transition a phylogeographical break?

Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2007

Patarnello Tomaso, Volckaert Filip A M J, Castilho Rita

Abstract excerpt

The geological history of the Mediterranean Sea, its hydrography and connection with the Atlantic Ocean have been well documented. Despite a wealth of historical and oceanographic data, the Atlantic-Mediterranean transition remains controversial at the biological level as there are discordant results regarding the biogeographical separation between the Atlantic and Mediterranean biota. The opening of the Strait...
