Biogeographical history and coalescent species delimitation of Pacific island skinks (Squamata: Scincidae: Emoia cyanura species group)

2016-10-01

Abstract excerpt

AIM: A prevailing hypothesis for how Pacific islands organisms have obtained their extant distributions is that of a stepping‐stone model, in which populations originate from Papua New Guinea in the western Pacific and gradually disperse eastward. Here, we test this model using a spatiotemporal framework for Emoia cyanura and E. impar, two species within the Emoia cyanura species group (ECSG; Family: Scincidae). W...
