We present a mitochondrial gene tree for representative species of all the genera in the subfamily Myobatrachinae, with special emphasis on Crinia and Geocrinia. This group has been the subject of a number of long-standing taxonomic and phylogenetic debates. Our phylogeny is based on data from appro

We used 16S rRNA, 12S rRNA, and cytochrome-b sequence to investigate the history of the "30-chromosome" Hyla, a diverse assemblage of neotropical treefrogs. Three aspects of these frogs were examined: (1) phylogenetic relationships among constituent species groups, among the species of one of these
Frogs of the genus Tomopterna occur throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Previous work has shown that there are seven cryptic species, which occupy diverse habitats from grasslands to deserts. The current paper proposes a phylogeny of Tomopterna based on partial sequences of the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gen
