Abstract

A data-set representing 10 of the 14 species of pitvipers in the genus Gloydius was assembled based on the NCBI database to explore the phylogenetic relationships within the genus, with an emphasis on Iranian populations. A fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene was sequenced for 16 specimens of Iranian pitvipers from five locations, and the sequences were added to a final data-set comprising 65 specimens. The Iranian populations belong to a clade containing G. intermedius, G. halys, G. saxatilis, and G. shedaoensis with unresolved within-clade relationships. The Iranian pitvipers clustered with G. halys from Kazakhstan, but more definite taxonomic conclusions on the Iranian populations will require the resolution of species limits among G. intermedius, G. halys, G. shedaoensis, and G. saxatilis. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:BA396891-654E-47C4-B9F0-5DD77985BFB7

从线粒体细胞色素b序列推断伊朗pitvipers (Viperidae, Crotalinae, Gloydius)的系统发育位置

基于NCBI数据库，收集了一个代表Gloydius属14种皮毒蛇中10种的数据集，以探索该属内的系统发育关系，重点是伊朗种群。对来自五个地点的16个伊朗毒蛇标本的线粒体细胞色素b基因片段进行了测序，并将这些序列添加到包括65个标本的最终数据集中。伊朗种群属于一个包含中间G.intermediaus、哈利斯G.halys、萨克萨蒂利斯G.saxatilis和谢道G.shedaoensis的分支，其内部关系尚未解决。伊朗皮蝰与来自哈萨克斯坦的G.halys集群，但对伊朗种群的更明确的分类学结论需要解决中间G.、G.halys、G.shedaoensis和G.saxatilis之间的物种限制。http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:BA396891-654E-47C4-B9F0-5DD77985BFB7

期刊介绍： Tropical Zoology is an international zoological journal publishing original papers in the field of systematics, biogeography, phylogeny, ecology and conservation of all terrestrial and aquatic animal Phyla from tropical and subtropical areas. Only papers with new information, high quality and broad interest are considered. Single species description and checklists are not normally accepted. Review papers are welcome. The journal is owned by the Istituto di Ricerca sugli Ecosistemi Terrestri of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Florence, Italy (CNR-IRET) who performs research into the structure and functioning of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, focusing in particular on anthropogenic pressure and global change. The knowledge amassed forms the scientific basis for identifying the most appropriate protective and corrective interventions, and provides support for the bodies entrusted with formulating policies for environmental protection and recovery.
