Resolving cryptic diversity in the Chromis viridis species complex (Pomacentridae): a multilocus phylogenetic and morphometric reassessment of species boundaries
The blue-green damselfish, Chromis viridis (Cuvier, 1830), is widely distributed across Indo-Pacific coral reefs and is among the most heavily traded marine ornamental fishes. Recent molecular studies have suggested the presence of cryptic diversity within the C. viridis complex, but species boundaries remain unr...
