Extensive Admixture Among Karst‐Obligate Salamanders Reveals Evidence of Recent Divergence and Gene Exchange Through Aquifers

Extensive Admixture Among Karst‐Obligate Salamanders Reveals Evidence of Recent Divergence and Gene Exchange Through Aquifers

ABSTRACT Karst ecosystems often contain extraordinary biodiversity, but the complex underground aquifers of karst regions present challenges for assessing and conserving stygobiont diversity and investigating their evolutionary history. We examined the karst‐obligate salamanders of the Eurycea neote...
