摘要: Water frogs [genus Pelophylax (Rana)] that occur around the eastern Mediterranean Sea provide an opportunity to study early stages of speciation. The geography region has changed dramatically since Middle Miocene as a result motions adjoining lithospheric plates and regional-scale vertical crustal (uplift subsidence). For several hundred thousand years between 6 5 million ago (Mya), basin was isolated from Atlantic Ocean, became desiccated (the Messinian Salinity Crisis; MSC). Geological data suggest endemic water frog lineage on Cyprus by flooding salt at end MSC, circa 5.5–5.3 Mya. This suggests rate uncorrected genetic divergence approximately 1.1% per (My). Divergence time estimates based this are in good agreement with chronology events history deformation landscape development region.
