Monitors cross the Red Sea: the biogeographic history of Varanus yemenensis.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Jan 2012

Portik Daniel M, Papenfuss Theodore J

Abstract excerpt

The Red Sea has had a profound biogeographic effect on organisms with Afro-Asian distributions, resulting in complex patterns of admixture on the Arabian Peninsula. We investigate the phylogenetic affinities of a monitor lizard (Varanus yemenensis) restricted to the southwestern Arabian Peninsula by sequencing all African monitor species and several Asian monitor species for the mitochondrial gene ND2 and the...
