Study highlights the viviparous sea snakes as a promising system for speciation studies in the marine environment

A new paper involving Environment Institute members and (also SA Museum) as well as Arne Rasmussen (The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts), Mumpuni (Museum Zoologi Bogor), Johan Elmberg (Kristianstad University), Anstem de Silva (Gampola, Sri Lanka) and Michael Guinea (Charles Darwin University) has recently been published in the journal Molecular Ecology.

The paper titled investigated recent speciation and eco-morphological differentiation in four nominal sea snake species with overlapping ranges in Southeast Asia and Australia to shed light on the mechanisms underlying sea snake diversification.

According to the researchers, the results highlight the viviparous sea snakes as a promising system for speciation studies in the marine environment.
