Genetic data, reproduction season and reproductive strategy data support the existence of biological species in Ophioderma longicauda.

Comptes rendus biologies - 1 Oct 2014

Weber Alexandra Anh-Thu, Stöhr Sabine, Chenuil Anne

Abstract excerpt

Cryptic species are numerous in the marine environment. The brittle star Ophioderma longicauda is composed of six mitochondrial lineages, encompassing brooders, which form a monophyletic group, and broadcasters, from which the brooders are derived. To clarify the species limits within O. longicauda, we compared the reproductive status of the sympatric lineages L1 and L3 (defined after sequencing a portion of the...
