Most of the northern half of North America's freshwater fish survived the last glacial period in unfrozen refugia peripheral to the ice sheets. In our study, the question of which refugia Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus) inhabited during the Wisconsinan Ice Age, and how they subsequently dispersed to their present geographical range, was examined using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis. mtDNA from 12 T....
