| Turtles (Testudines) form a monophyletic group with a highly distinctive body plan. The taxonomy and phylogeny of turtles are still under discussion, at least for some clades. Whereas in most previous studies, only a few species or genera were considered, we here use an extensive compilation of DNA sequences from nuclear and mitochondrial genes for more than two thirds of the total number of turtle species to infer a large phylogeny for this taxon. Our results enable us to discuss previous hypotheses on species phylogeny or taxonomy. We are thus able to discriminate between competing hypotheses and to suggest taxonomical modifications. Finally, we pinpoint the remaining ambiguities for this phylogeny and the species for which new sequences should be... |

| Molecular analysis based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence was performed to elucidate the genetic difference between Haematobia irritans (Linnaeus) and H. exigua (de Meijere), and the phylogenetic relationship among Japanese Stomoxyini species (Stomoxys calcitrans (Linnaeus), S. indicus Picard, S. uruma Shinonaga et Kano, and Haematobosca sanguinolenta (Austen) including Haematobia). Two populations obtained from Obihiro and Morioka which were morphologically identified as H. irritans were genetically identical. Two populations obtained from Taiwan and Vietnam which were morphologically identified as H. exigua were almost genetically identical, but there was a small divergence (0.3-0.4%) between them. Nucleotide sequence divergences between H. irritans... |
