Phylogenomics and historical biogeography of West Indian Rock Iguanas (genus Cyclura)
2022, Molecular Phylogenetics and EvolutionCitation Excerpt :Carter and Hayes (2004) identified apparent differences among the subspecies in body sizes, femoral pore counts, and some head scalation characters (the latter with small sample sizes), characters that might be reasonably expected to be plastic or environmentally-induced rather than a reflection of divergent evolution and the process of speciation (Fox et al. 1961; Wegener et al. 2014; Baeckens et al. 2015; Ortega et al. 2019). Malone et al. (2000) found no variable positions (=segregating sites) among these subspecies using a single mtDNA gene, and the subspecies were described as “poorly-defined” by Lemm and Alberts (2011). Carter and Hayes (2004) stated that “final resolution of taxonomic status of C. rileyi should be determined by analysis of more rapidly diverging nuclear markers.”
