MF25007Phylogeography of the freshwater glassfishes (Ambassidae) of eastern Australia: cryptic species and hybrid zones
Australian freshwater glassfishes are difficult to identify and have a confusing history, with changing species names and distributions. We examined the eastern Australian species Ambassis agassizii to clarify its taxonomy and distribution. Detailed genetic analyses identified two species within A. agassizii and found complex patterns of interbreeding with species from surrounding river basins along with intricate and often unique biogeographic patterns.
