| habitat islands, genetic diversity, and gene flow in a patagonian rodent. | the effects of terrestrial habitat islands on gene flow and genetic diversity in animal populations have been predicted and discussed in theoretical terms, but empirical data are needed to test these predictions and provide an understanding of the relationships of life-history characteristics to genetics of insular species. we studied saxicolous mice (phyllotis xanthopygus) in patagonia to explore genetic structure, phylogeography, and gene flow in a species inhabiting natural habitat islands. p ... | 1998 | 9640647 |
| litomosoides pardinasi n. sp. (nematoda, onchocercidae) from two species of cricetid rodents in northern patagonia, argentina. | seventy-seven cricetid rodents, corresponding to six different species, deposited at the mammal collection at centro nacional patagónico, puerto madryn, chubut, were examined for parasites. litomosoides pardinasi n. sp. is described parasitizing the pleural and abdominal cavities of phyllotis xanthopygus (phyllotini) and the abdominal cavity of oligoryzomys longicaudatus (oryzomynii) in the northern patagonia, argentina. the new species is included in the carinii group, characterized by the pres ... | 2011 | 20852888 |
