So far away, yet so close: strong genetic structure in Homonota uruguayensis (Squamata, Phyllodactylidae), a species with restricted geographic distribution in the Brazilian and Uruguayan Pampas.

Abstract excerpt

The Pampas is a biologically rich South American biome, but is poorly represented in phylogeographic studies. While the Pleistocene glacial cycles may have affected the evolutionary history of species distributed in forested biomes, little is known about their effects on the habitats that remained stable through glacial cycles. The South American Pampas have been covered by grasslands during both glacial and...
