Widespread phenotypic hypervariation in the enigmatic anchialine shrimp Barbouria cubensis (Decapoda: Barbouriidae).

Abstract excerpt

Classification and evolutionary relationships among anchialine shrimp from the family Barbouriidae Christoffersen, 1987, has long been a topic of debate amongst crustacean taxonomists. To date, no study has examined morphological or molecular variation among populations of these enigmatic shrimp. The present study documents and analyzes patterns of widespread morphological variation within populations of...
