Introgression and rapid species turnover in sympatric damselflies.

BMC evolutionary biology - 18 Jul 2011

Sánchez-Guillén Rosa A, Wellenreuther Maren, Cordero-Rivera Adolfo, Hansson Bengt

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Studying contemporary hybridization increases our understanding of introgression, adaptation and, ultimately, speciation. The sister species Ischnura elegans and I. graellsii (Odonata: Coenagrionidae) are ecologically, morphologically and genetically similar and hybridize. Recently, I. elegans has colonized northern Spain, creating a broad sympatric region with I. graellsii. Here, we review the...
