Salinity driven speciation through fine-scale morphological adaptations in the dinoflagellate species flock Peridinium aciculiferum/Scrippsiella hangoei

The cold-water species Peridinium aciculiferum and Scrippsiella hangoei form a species flock with small genetic differences but large distinct morphological differences. It has been hypothised that this species flock could be an example of a recent rapid adaptive radition in response to environmenta...
