genetic legacy of lower sea levels: does the confluence of rivers during the last glacial maximum explain the contemporary distribution of a primary freshwater fish (Pseudobarbus burchelli, Cyprinidae) across isolated river systems?

The primary freshwater fish Pseudobarbus burchelli (Smith 1841) occurs across four presently isolated river systems in the south-western cape floristic region of South Africa. Mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b (701 base pairs) and control region (601 base pairs) genes were sequenced to assess the evolu...
