“…(Bucklin, 1992). Partial sequences of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), NADH dehydrogenase subunit I (NDl), and 16S rRNA (16S) genes were amplified via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the primers LCO1490 and HC02198 (Folmer et al, 1994) or COIL1492 and COIH2390 (Liu et al, 2001), ND43F and RND592F (Liu et al, 2003), and 16Sar-L and 16Sbr-H…”

“…Furthermore, the intraspecific K2P distances between L. naticoides from GenBank (0.000-0.00489) are only one-tenth the distances between L. naticoides and L. prasinus. The geographic distance between the two GenBank localities of L. naticoides: the Narew river at Drozdowo, Poland ) and the Hron river at Zvolen, Slovakia (LIU et al 2001) is 556 km. Moreover, the Narew river belongs to the Baltic Sea, and the Hron river to the Black Sea catchment area.…”

Lithoglyphus prasinus (Küster, 1852) is the only representative of the genus Lithoglyphus which, instead of rivers, inhabits oligostenothermal waters of karst springs. The taxon is probably endemic to central and southeastern Slovenia and the adjacent territories of Croatia. Apart from the ecology and shell morphology, there are no differences between L. prasinus and the other Lithoglyphus species. The species distinctness of the taxon is doubtful; it has been postulated to be an oligostenothermal ecotype or race of L. naticoides. In the present paper partial sequences of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) of mtDNA were used to check the species distinctness of L. prasinus from the Moèilnik spring of Ljubljanica river in Slovenia. For the COI sequences K2P distances between the two taxa were 0.03170-0.03347. This, coupled with small intraspecific differences in both taxa, suggests that L. prasinus is a distinct species.

“…For Mexipyrgus churinceanus , we amplified and sequenced a 710 bp fragment of mitochondrial cytochrome b (see [20] for PCR and sequencing details). These primers did not work well in the other two species, so for Mexithauma quadripaludium and Nymphophilus minckleyi, we sequenced 634 bp and 629 bp respectively of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) with primers used with other hydrobiid snails [25]. Cytochrome b and COI have similar levels of sequence variation and are equally useful in recovering intrageneric phylogenetic relationships in invertebrates [47].…”

“…The three snails species have sculptured, robust, highly durable shells that are more characteristic of marine snails [23], [24]. Although the three snails all belong to the same family (Hydrobiidae), the differences in shell architecture observed across species likely evolved independently [25]. The cichlid fish Herichthys minckleyi (hereafter the fish) exhibits two alternative pharyngeal jaw morphologies (Fig.…”

Spatial Geographic Mosaic in an Aquatic Predator-Prey Network

The geographic mosaic theory of coevolution predicts 1) spatial variation in predatory structures as well as prey defensive traits, and 2) trait matching in some areas and trait mismatching in others mediated by gene flow. We examined gene flow and documented spatial variation in crushing resistance in the freshwater snails Mexipyrgus churinceanus, Mexithauma quadripaludium, Nymphophilus minckleyi, and its relationship to the relative frequency of the crushing morphotype in the trophically polymorphic fish Herichthys minckleyi. Crushing resistance and the frequency of the crushing morphotype did show spatial variation among 11 naturally replicated communities in the Cuatro Ciénegas valley in Mexico where these species are all endemic. The variation in crushing resistance among populations was not explained by geographic proximity or by genetic similarity in any species. We detected clear phylogeographic patterns and limited gene flow for the snails but not for the fish. Gene flow among snail populations in Cuatro Ciénegas could explain the mosaic of local divergence in shell strength and be preventing the fixation of the crushing morphotype in Herichthys minckleyi. Finally, consistent with trait matching across the mosaic, the frequency of the fish morphotype was negatively correlated with shell crushing resistance likely reflecting the relative disadvantage of the crushing morphotype in communities where the snails exhibit relatively high crushing resistance.
