Fuzzy species borders of glacial survivalists in the Carpathian biodiversity hotspot revealed using a multimarker approach
Abstract The Carpathians are one of the key biodiversity hotspots in Europe. The mountain chain uplifted during Alpine orogenesis and is characterised by a complex geological history. Its current biodiversity was highly influenced by Pleistocene glaciations. The goal of the current study was to exam...
