Did tectonic activity stimulate oligo-miocene speciation in the Indo-West Pacific?
Analyses of molecular phylogenies of three unrelated tropical marine gastropod genera, Turbo, Echinolittorina, and Conus, reveal an increase in the rate of cladogenesis of some Indo-West Pacific (IWP) clades beginning in the Late Oligocene or Early Miocene between 23.7 and 21.0 million years ago. In all three genera, clades with an increased rate of diversification reach a maximum of diversity,...
متن کاملDiscriminant analysis of Indo-West Pacific Flabellum
CAIRNS, S.D., 1989:10:30. Discriminant analysis of Indo-West Pacific Flabellum. Mem. Ass. Australas. Palaeontols 8, 61-68. ISSN 0810-8889. Stepwise discriminant analysis was performed on 145 specimens of Indo-West Pacific Flabellum pertaining to 8 putative species. Posterior classification supported the premise of 8 species at the 99.3% level. Only two characters are needed to distinguish all s...
متن کاملPhylogenetic and morphometric differentiation reveal geographic radiation and pseudo-cryptic speciation in a mangrove crab from the Indo-West Pacific.
The presence of boundaries to dispersal has been recently documented for many Indo-West Pacific (IWP) species with planktonic propagules and a widespread distribution. We studied the phylogeography of the mangrove crab Neosarmatium meinerti (Brachyura: Sesarmidae) and the phylogenetic relationship to its presumed sister species N. fourmanoiri in the IWP in order to compare intraspecific with in...
متن کاملDiversity of Indo-West Pacific Siphonaria (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Euthyneura).
Species of the limpet genus Siphonaria (Gastropoda: Euthyneura) are commonly found in the rocky intertidal, worldwide, except in the Arctic. In total, 205 species-group names are available and not permanently invalid. However, estimating the actual species diversity of Siphonaria has remained challenging, mainly because past authors have interpreted differently the variation of shell characters...
متن کامل(Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) from tropical Indo-West Pacific Haemulidae (Perciformes)
A survey of the parasites of Indo-West Pacific Haemulidae revealed the presence of three new cryptogonimid (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) species warranting two new genera, Beluesca littlewoodi n. gen., n. sp. and B. longicolla n. sp. from the intestine and pyloric caeca of Plectorhinchus gibbosus and Chelediadema marjoriae n. gen., n. sp. from the intestine and pyloric caeca of Diagramma labiosum,...
