Patterns of speciation in the genus Lopidea (Heteroptera: Miridae: Orthotylinae)

摘要: . Speciation in four monophyletic species groups of the mirid genus Lopidea is examined. An analysis twelve speciation events suggests that vicariance can account for at least 50% Lopidea, and frequency sympatric host plant may be as high 25%. In examples attributable to peripheral isolate speciation, daughter taxa typically occur recognized areas endemism, suggesting a common cause (vicariance) their origins. In addition, seven zones disjunction between subspecies allopatric sister were identified which correspond with similar disjunctions other organisms.
