Abstract excerpt
There is increasing interest in the diversity and phylogeography of aquatic invertebrate zooplankton in the Eastern Palearctic, yet this topic remains largely unexplored in China. Here, we investigated the lineage diversity and phylogeography of an important cladoceran taxon, the Scapholeberis kingii (Cladocera: Daphniidae) species complex, members of which live in the surface layers of freshwater ecosystems. We...
