Abstract:
The landscape of the Pilbara region of Western Australia has been relatively unchanged for
100 million years. The ancient river systems of this region might be expected to be sources
of isolation and divergence for aquatic species. Hence, the occurrence of widespread
groundwater taxa in this landscape offers the opportunity to examine associations between
genetic diversity and drainage patterns.
Pilbarus
and
Chydaekata
are two widespread
genera of subterranean amphipods endemic to the Pilbara, each occupying multiple
tributaries. We used molecular data to examine the roles of drainage patterns in structuring
genetic diversity. Gene flow within a tributary may be facilitated by the occasional occurrence
of these amphipods in springs, which results in their downstream dispersal during episodic
flooding. However, tributary boundaries may form hydrological barriers to gene flow,
resulting in localised isolation of populations and divergence. Samples of both genera,
collected throughout three river basins, were examined for sequence divergence in the
cytochrome
c
oxidase I mitochondrial gene. There was no evidence of contemporary gene
flow among populations of either genus, and each tributary contained highly divergent
lineages, which were not associated with similar morphological differentiation. This
suggests cryptic speciation has occurred, and similar phylogenetic signals in both taxa
imply similar evolutionary histories. Surface populations may have been driven into
subterranean refugia by the cessation of flow in the rivers, associated with Tertiary climate
change, while morphological evolution may have been constrained by stabilising selection.
The lack of congruence between molecular diversity and morphology raises important
practical issues for conservation.
