Abstract Species characterized by low dispersal capacities, such as mysids, usually show evidence of genetic differentiation. Many mysids are broadly distributed and often show eurythermal and euryhaline traits. This study aimed to describe intraspecific genetic structure and the phylogeography of Neomysis americana, a key species of estuarine food webs in northwest Atlantic, using the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene. We sampled 26 populations across the St. Lawrence system (SLS) and two along the east coast of North America [Penobscot and Chesapeake Bay (CB)]. Sequencing of 420 individuals revealed three divergent (>3%) lineages (LA, LB, LC) across the sampling area suggesting that N. americana represents a cryptic species complex. The distribution of the lineages was geographically structured. LC occurred in the CB only, whereas LA and LB co-occurred along the SLS and Penobscot Bay. This suggests secondary contact after the last glacial maximum. In the SLS the lineage LA dominated the estuarine transition zone and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, whereas the lineage LB was prevalent in the lower St. Lawrence Estuary, potentially due to different eco-physiological preferences. These results might help to define reasonable entities for research and management.

AbstractThe worldwide distribution and extensive genetic diversity of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci has long been recognized. However, whether B. tabaci is a complex species or a species complex has been a subject of debate. Recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that B. tabaci is a cryptic species complex composed of at least 24 morphologically indistinguishable species. Here, we conducted crossing experiments and demonstrated reproductive incompatibility among three of the 24 putative species. Our data and those of previously reported crossing experiments among various putative species of B. tabaci were collated to reveal the pattern of reproductive isolation. The combined results provide strong support to the proposition that B. tabaci is a cryptic species complex.
