Contrasting morphological and genetic patterns suggest cryptic speciation and phenotype–environment covariation within three benthic marine hydrozoans
Connectivity among populations of widespread marine species is expected to be correlated with their dispersal potential but the evolution of...

Cryptic diversity and population genetic structure of the mantis shrimp Oratosquilla oratoria in South Korea
BackgroundThe Japanese mantis shrimp Oratosquilla oratoria has two genetic lineages in its Chinese and Japanese populations, which are considered...

Landscape genomics reveals signals of climate adaptation and a cryptic lineage in Arthropodium fimbriatum
Habitat loss and fragmentation are critical threats to biodiversity. Consequent decreases in population size and connectivity can impact genetic...

Morphological, genetic and ecological divergence in near-cryptic bryophyte species widespread in the Holarctic: the Dicranum acutifolium complex (Dicranales) revisited in the Alps
There is mounting evidence that reproductively isolated, but morphologically weakly differentiated species (so-called cryptic species) represent a...

Genomic databanks provide robust assessment of invasive mosquito movement pathways and cryptic establishment
Biosecurity strategies that aim to restrict the spread of invasive pests can benefit from knowing where incursions have come from and whether cryptic...

Genome variation in tick infestation and cryptic divergence in Tunisian indigenous sheep
BackgroundTicks are obligate haematophagous ectoparasites considered second to mosquitos as vectors and reservoirs of multiple pathogens of global...

Before it’s too late: priority areas for conservation of cryptic and threatened species of troglobitic arthropods in the Brazilian semiarid
One of the most important steps in identifying priority areas for conservation is the assessment of species richness and their extinction risks....
