The international trade of non-domesticated pets impacts both conservation and biosecurity via the harvest release live animals beyond their native distributions. extent to which individual countries mitigate these regulation is inconsistent, as capacity monitor internet facilitated trade. We investigated online vertebrate within Australia, a country with reputation for relatively stringent pet-importation regulations world-class border biosecurity. Using semi-automated data mining (i.e.,...
Context Galaxiids are a widespread, southern hemisphere, radiation of mostly obligate freshwater fishes. Tasmania houses diversity endemic species Galaxias and Paragalaxias. Of these, many at risk extinction, being landlocked, range-restricted subject to anthropogenic threats, placing high-conservation priority on the region. Aim Our aim was synthesise historic published molecular datasets provide sound systematic framework needed underpin future conservation taxonomic efforts for Tasmanian...
Abstract Identification of taxonomically cryptic species is essential for the effective conservation biodiversity. Freshwater‐limited organisms tend to be genetically isolated by drainage boundaries, and thus may expected show substantial phylogenetic taxonomic diversity. By comparison, populations diadromous taxa, that migrate between freshwater marine environments, are less genetic differentiation. Here we test diversity in Australasian (both non‐diadromous) two widespread Southern...
