Fine scale patterns of migration and gene flow in the endangered mound spring snail, Fonscochlea accepta (Mollusca:Hydrobiidae) in arid Australia

2007-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Naturally patchy ecosystems are models for other systems currently undergoing anthropogenic habitat fragmentation. Understanding patterns of gene flow in these model systems can help us manage species and ecosystems threatened by human impacts. The mound springs of central Australia represent such a natural model ecosystem, supporting a unique aquatic fauna distributed within an inhospitable arid landscape. Moreov...
