Phylogeny and evolution of Malagasy plated lizards.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Feb 2009

Raselimanana Achille P, Noonan Brice, Karanth K Praveen, Gauthier Jacques, Yoder Anne D

Abstract excerpt

The endemic plated lizards (Gerrhosauridae) of Madagascar are one of the most diverse groups of lizards on the island (19 species) and are found in all ecoregions. On an island that presents so many interesting biological questions, plated lizards are an ideal group for examining patterns of diversification due to their high (but tractable) diversity and wide distribution. To resolve the taxonomy and evolutionary...
