population history and genomic admixture of sea snakes of the genus laticauda in the west pacific.speciation in the open ocean has long been studied, but it remains largely elusive what factors promote or inhibit speciation in such an open environment. marine amniotes, which evolved from terrestrial ancestors, provide valuable opportunities for studying speciation in the ocean because of their evident aquatic origins. sea snakes are phylogenetically related to terrestrial elapid snakes and consist of two monophyletic groups (hydrophiini and laticaudini). these two groups migrated from land t ...202033160037
phylogenetic relationships within laticaudine sea snakes (elapidae).the sea snake subfamily laticaudinae consists of a single genus with eight named species, based on morphological characters. we used microsatellite and mitochondrial dna (mtdna) data to clarify the adaptive radiation of these oviparous sea snakes in the south pacific, with special reference to new caledonia and vanuatu. a mitochondrial dna data set (nd4 gene 793 bp) was obtained from 345 individuals of the five species of laticauda sp. sea snakes endemic to the region. maximum likelihood and bay ...201121414416
