Abstract:European mountain systems played a crucial role in shaping the distribution of species and of their genetic diversity during the Quaternary's climatic changes with the establishment of allopatric patterns across main mountain ranges. Here we investigated the evolutionary history of flea beetles of the Longitarsus candidulus species-group showing an uncommon disjunct biogeographic pattern across the Apennine and the Pyrenees. We applied a multilocus molecular approach and multispecies coalescent models to estab… Show more
