Counteracting Forces of Introgressive Hybridization and Interspecific Competition Shape the Morphological Traits of Cryptic Lberian Eptesicus Bats

Abstract: Cryptic species that coexist in sympatry are likely to simultaneously experience strong competition and hybridization. The first phenomenon would lead to character displacement, whereas the second can potentially promote morphological similarity through adaptive introgression. The main goal of this work was to investigate the effect of introgressive hybridization on the morphology of cryptic Iberian Eptesicus bats when facing counteracting evolutionary forces from interspecific competition. We found substantia… Show more
