On species delimitation: yet another lemur species or just genetic variation?

BMC evolutionary biology - 21 Jul 2011

Markolf Matthias, Brameier Markus, Kappeler Peter M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Although most taxonomists agree that species are independently evolving metapopulation lineages that should be delimited with several kinds of data, the taxonomic practice in Malagasy primates (Lemuriformes) looks quite different. Several recently described lemur species are based solely on evidence of genetic distance and diagnostic characters of mitochondrial DNA sequences sampled from a few...
