Zoosystematics and Evolution OA journal devoted to the diversity, systematics & evolution of all animal groups, except for insects

Zoosystematics and Evolution is an international, peer-reviewed life science journal devoted to the diversity, systematics and evolution of all animal groups, except for insects. It publishes original research and review articles at all taxonomic levels. Its scope encompasses primary information from collection-related research, taxonomic descriptions and discoveries, revisions, annotated type cat

alogues, relevant aspects of the history of science, and contributions on new methods and principles of taxonomy and systematics. Published by Pensoft on behalf of Museum fΓΌr Naturkunde, Berlin on ARPHA Platform.

Niphargus is the most speciose amphipod genus inhabiting groundwater of the Western Palearctic. The genus is renowned for its notorious taxonomy, associated with large within- but often negligible between-species morphological variation. Results of molecular taxonomy suggested that morphological var...

The assessment of the taxonomic status of Stenocercus chrysopygus Boulenger, 1900, a conspicuous species inhabiting the upper valleys of the Santa, ChiquiΓ‘n, and MaraΓ±Γ³n rivers in central Peru, has been pending for decades. We studied the phylogenetic relationships and variation of several popula...
