 | En este artículo voy a intentar ordenar la información existente sobre las lagartijas anteriormente denominadas Podarcis hispanica. El siguiente mapa muestra la distribución de los diferentes linajes descritos, así como una filogenia muy simplificada en la que se muestran las relaciones entre ellos. El complejo Podarcis hispanica forma un grupo muy heterogéneo con relaciones filogenéticas complicadas que se han ido definiendo mediante recientes estudios genéticos. Leer más. |
