Cryptic diversity and biogeography of South American salamanders
(PUCE, 2016)
Tropical regions harbor a majority of Earth’s biodiversity. In most taxonomic
groups there is a gradient of increasing diversity from polar to tropical latitudes. In a
few groups, however, the gradient is partly inverted ...
Mating trials validate the use of DNA barcoding to reveal cryptic speciation of a marine bryozoan taxon

Model-based analyses reveal insular population diversification and cryptic frog species in the Ischnocnema parva complex in the Atlantic forest of Brazil
(2017-07-01)
The Atlantic Forest (AF) of Brazil has long been recognized as a biodiversity conservation hotspot. Despite decades of studies the species inventory of this biome continues to increase with the discovery of cryptic diversity ...
Phylogeny and cryptic diversity in geckos (Phyllopezus; Phyllodactylidae; Gekkota) from South America's open biomes
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCESAN DIEGO, 2012)
The gecko genus Phyllopezus occurs across South America's open biomes: Cerrado, Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests (SDTF, including Caatinga), and Chaco. We generated a multi-gene dataset and estimated phylogenetic relationships ...
Cryptic species in Iphisa elegans Gray, 1851 (Squamata: Gymnophthalmidae) revealed by hemipenial morphology and molecular data
(WILEY-BLACKWELLHOBOKEN, 2012)
Iphisa elegans Gray, 1851 is a ground-dwelling lizard widespread over Amazonia that displays a broadly conserved external morphology over its range. This wide geographical distribution and conservation of body form contrasts ...
The hidden diversity of Coleodactylus amazonicus (Sphaerodactylinae, Gekkota) revealed by molecular data
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2010)
Coleodactylus amazonicus, a small leaf-litter diurnal gecko widely distributed in Amazon Basin has been, considered a single species with no significant morphological differences between populations along its range. A ...
Molecular systematics reveals multiple lineages and cryptic speciation in the freshwater crayfish Parastacus brasiliensis (von Martens, 1869) (Crustacea:Decapoda:Parastacidae)
(Csiro Publishing, 2018-01-01)
The characterisation of intraspecific genetic diversity in representatives of the South American crayfish genus Parastacus Huxley, 1879 is here carried out for the first time by comparing populations of Parastacus brasiliensis ...
Systematics of Amazonian lizards of the genus Potamites (Gymnophthalmidae)
(PUCE, 2015)
Although recent studies have helped unraveling the evolutionary history of the Neotropical lizard clade Gymnophthalmidae, many questions remain unanswered. Here we focus on assessing the diversity of the genus Potamites ...
