Evolutionary history and identification of conservation units in the giant otter, Pteronura brasiliensis

[Display omitted] ► In this paper we investigate the phylogeography of the endangered giant otter. ► We sequence mitochondrial control region and cytochrome b genes. ► We resolve four distinct phylogroups, constituting conservation units. ► We tested three hypotheses of Amazonian diversification. ►...
