Quaternary refugia and secondary contact in the southern boundary of the Brazilian subregion: Comparative phylogeography of freshwater fish

Freshwater fish are an ideal model to illustrate how climate-tectonic changes affect the distribution of genetic variation. Freshwater bodies are extensively affected by environmental changes, with streams even changing their courses in the most extreme cases. Fortunately, this situation is reflecte...
