Historical biogeography of the Saharan horned viper enlightens past dynamics of hyperarid desert habitats

We show that paleoclimatic oscillations were major evolutionary and biogeographic drivers in C. cerastes, which exhibits different levels of intra-specific diversity and allopatric lineage structuration across the desert. High lineage richness in the north-western Sahara contrasts with an overall lack of genetic diversity throughout the central and eastern Sahara.  Leer más.
