Seri Indian traditional knowledge and molecular biology agree: no express train for island-hopping spiny-tailed iguanas in the Sea of Cortés

2011-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Aim The role of human activities in species biogeography can be difficult to identify, but in some cases molecular techniques can be used to test hypotheses of human-mediated dispersal. A currently accepted hypothesis states that humans mediated the divergence of two species of spiny-tailed iguanas in the Ctenosaura hemilopha species complex, namely C. conspicuosa and C. nolascensis, which occupy islands in the Se...
