Cryptic diversity and deep divergence in an upper Amazonian leaflitter frog, Eleutherodactylus ockendeni.

BMC evolutionary biology - 21 Dec 2007

Elmer Kathryn R, Dávila José A, Lougheed Stephen C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The forests of the upper Amazon basin harbour some of the world's highest anuran species richness, but to date we have only the sparsest understanding of the distribution of genetic diversity within and among species in this region. To quantify region-wide genealogical patterns and to test for the presence of deep intraspecific divergences that have been documented in some other neotropical anurans,...
