Concordant genetic structure in two species of woodpecker distributed across the primary West African biogeographic barriers.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Jul 2015

Fuchs Jérôme, Bowie Rauri C K

Abstract excerpt

The lowland forests of western and central tropical Africa are separated by several potential biogeographic barriers to dispersal for forest adapted vertebrates. The two primary barriers are (1) the Dahomey Gap, a savanna corridor that reaches the coast of southern Ghana, Togo and Benin, and separates the West African rainforest into the Upper (Ghana west to Guinea) and Lower Guinea (Nigeria to Uganda and Angola)...
