Study highlights the viviparous sea snakes as a promising system for speciation studies in the marine environment

A new paper involving Environment Institute members and (also SA Museum) as well as Arne Rasmussen (The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts), Mumpuni (Museum Zoologi Bogor), Johan Elmberg (Kristianstad ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥), Anstem de Silva (Gampola, Sri Lanka) and Michael Guinea (Charles Darwin ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥) has recently been published in the journal Molecular Ecology.

The paper titled investigated recent speciation and eco-morphological differentiation in four nominal sea snake species with overlapping ranges in Southeast Asia and ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ to shed light on the mechanisms underlying sea snake diversification.

According to the researchers, the results highlight the viviparous sea snakes as a promising system for speciation studies in the marine environment.
