Resumo: | Thirteen specimens of Tarentola from the Cape Verde islands were sequenced for 695 base pairs of l2S rRNA and cytochrome b mitochondrial genes, and analysed with published sequences. Our results support many of the relationships previously proposed. We report the presence of Taren/ala gigas Bocage, 1875 on Sao Nicolau and Taren/ala cabaverdiana nicalauensis Schleich, 1984 on Sao Vicente. This increases the number of genetically distinct forms on these islands; hence community structure appears to be more complex than previously understood. We also sequenced seven individuals for 375 base pairs of the nuclear gene. C-mos. Two sites were variable, much less than expected given the high levels of differentiation based on mitochondrial DNA sequences. |
