Frogs from natural habitats and of the rusty morphotype showed higher but statistically non-significant genetic diversity, with most variation occurring within populations and only weak, non-significant genetic structuring between morphotypes, indicating no strong genetic divergence.
The results indicate shallow genetic structure and incomplete spatial differentiation across the species range, highlighting the importance of preserving remnant restinga habitats and maintaining landscape connectivity to safeguard genetic diversity in A. robusta and other habitat-specialist ants.

The findings reveal pronounced mitochondrial population structure in G. guttulatus and suggest that geographic distance is more closely associated with population genetic differentiation than contemporary drainage-basin or major-river-system boundaries.

Abstract
Phenotypic traits and genetic variation are fundamental for understanding biological diversity and evolutionary processes. In natural populations, phenotypic novelties are generally expected to align with genetic differentiation, establishing phenotype–genotype relationships. This pattern is evident in...

The yellow-striped poison frog Dendrobates truncatus is endemic to Colombia. Despite its ecological plasticity and apparent abundance, which led to its classification as Least Concern (LC) on the IUCN Red List, it is crucial to objectively assess its conservation status, as the species faces significant threats from ha...

Etroplus suratensis (pearl spot) is a commercially important cichlid native to South and Southeast Asia, yet its genetic variation in habitats of Karnataka has not been previously studied. This study integrates morphological and molecular approaches to examine specimens from freshwater (n=65) and brackish water (n=60)...

Amphipods are abundant in freshwater ecosystems, where they play a crucial role in key processes such as organic matter decomposition. However, their diversity and spatial distribution remain poorly known due to the prevalence of cryptic species. This study investigates the genetic diversity of gammarids (Gammaridae)...
