Abstract The phylogeny and systematics of fur seals sea lions (Otariidae) have long been studied with diverse data types, including an increasing amount molecular data. However, only a few phylogenetic relationships reached acceptance because strong gene-tree species tree discordance. Divergence times estimates in the group also vary largely between studies. These uncertainties impeded understanding biogeographical history group, such as when how trans-equatorial dispersal subsequent...

Hybridization is widespread and constitutes an important source of genetic variability evolution. In animals, its role in generating novel independent lineages (hybrid speciation) has been strongly debated, with only a few cases supported by genomic data. The South American fur seal (SAfs) Arctocephalus australis marine apex predator Pacific Atlantic waters, disjunct set populations Peru Northern Chile [Peruvian (Pfs)] controversial taxonomic status. We demonstrate, using complete genome...
