Phylogenomics reveals novel relationships among Neotropical crocodiles (Crocodylus spp.).

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Nov 2020

Milián-García Yoamel, Amato George, Gatesy John, Hekkala Evon, Rossi Natalia, Russello Michael

Abstract excerpt

Extant species in the order Crocodylia are remnants of an ancient lineage of large-bodied archosaur reptiles. Despite decades of systematic studies, phylogenetic relationships among members of the genus Crocodylus (true crocodiles) in the Neotropics are poorly understood. Here we estimated phylogenomic relationships among the four extant Crocodylus species in the Americas. Species-tree reconstructions using...
