Abstract excerpt
Mountain ranges like the European Alps harbour large endemic biodiversity shaped by Pleistocene climatic oscillations. The flightless bush-cricket Anonconotus italoaustriacus, endemic to the Southern Limestone Alps (SLA) and the eastern Central Alps (CA), provides an ideal model to study the evolutionary and refugial dynamics of endemic alpine arthropods. Using genomic SNP data, we employed phylogenetic analyses,...
