Absence of geographic barrier across the indo-pacific province for coral reef fishes

Résumé

In previous studies, members of the three-spot damselfish species complex composed by four nominal species: Dascyllus albisella Gill, D. auripinnis Randall and Randall, D. strasburgi Klausewitz, and D. trimaculatus (Ruppell) were sampled from the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Rim (Japan to Wallis Island), French Polynesia, Hawaii, and Marquesas. Analyses of the control region of the mitochondrial DNA (D-loop) revealed five different clades: 3 of which correspond to the Pacific Rim (D. trimaculatus and D. auripinnis), Hawaii (D. albisella) and Marquesas (D. strasburgi) and the remaining two clades, Indian Ocean and French Polynesia (D. trimaculatus). We developed microsatellite primers to determine if clades uncovered by the mitochondrial analyses were consistent with nuclear data. Color morphs, species boundaries and incipient speciation in the three-spot damselfish complex are discussed
