Contreras-Félix Griselda Montiel-Parra Fabio G. Cupul-Magaña Tila M. Pérez Biología Speciation Biodiversity North America Tropical forest Species delimitation Specimens of Oroperipatus eisenii (Wheeler, 1898) were re-examined, including 13 new records for the species collected in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, and Michoacán in Mexico. Scanning electron micrographs that illustrate most of the diagnostic characters were provided allowing a redescription of the species, as well as a map of the localities where the collections were carried out. DNA sequences were obtained from the collected specimens for the cytochrome C oxidase I (COI) gene; results of the similarity analysis showed that there was no genetic divergence for COI within the sampled onychophoran populations. Natural history information of the species is included. 2018 artículo científico 1870-3453 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=42559319005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/425/42559319005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/425/42559319005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/425/42559319005/42559319005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/425/42559319005/movil 10.22201/ib.20078706e.2018.4.2586 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=425 Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad (México) Num.4 Vol.89 |
