Biogeography and variations in allopatric populations of Distolabrellus veechi Anderson, 1983 (Nematoda: Rhabditidae)

Biogeography and variations in allopatric populations of Distolabrellus veechi Anderson, 1983... AbstractA detailed description of Distolabrellus veechi (syn. nov. D. pakistanensis)is given based on variations observed in different populations collectedfrom India and Korea, and comparisons made with those reported from Arizonaand Argentina. The populations, which showed a great degree of morphometricoverlap and a continuous range in variation, could not be differentiatedfrom the type population of D. veechi. The relationships of the populationswere studied using morphological data subjected to cluster analysis. Thecharacteristics of the species and its relationship with Teratorhabditis arealso discussed. Biogeographical information revealed an interesting trend ofdistribution for the species, i.e., between 22-55° north and south of theequator. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nematology Brill
