Abstract excerpt
The ground crickets Allonemobius fasciatus and A. socius (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) are sister species that form a mosaic hybrid zone in the eastern United States.

Here, we report the discovery of several random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers that distinguish the two species, and we assess...
