Description

I am to test if contempoary gene flow (reproductive isolation) corelates with the degree of pheremone divergence among eight genetic lineages of Heteronotia geckos in north-eastern Australia. In doing so, I aim to assess the utility of integrating pheremone data into taxonomic revisions of cryptic lizard groups.
