Freshwater populations of typically marine species present unique opportunities to investigate biodiversity, evolutionary divergence, and the adaptive potential and niche width of species. A few pinniped species have populations that reside solely in freshwater. The harbor seals inhabiting Iliamna L...

Freshwater populations of typically marine species present unique opportunities to investigate biodiversity, evolutionary divergence, and the adaptive potential and niche width of species. A few pinniped species have populations that reside solely in freshwater. The harbor seals inhabiting Iliamna Lake, Alaska constitute one such population. Their remoteness, however, has long hindered scientific inquiry. We used DNA from seal scat and from tissue samples provided by Indigenous hunters to screen for mitochondrial DNA and microsatellite variation within Iliamna Lake and eight regions across the Pacific Ocean. The Iliamna seals: (1) were substantially and significantly discrete from all other populations ( Fst-mtDNA= 0.544, Φst-mtDNA = 0.541, Fst-microsatellites = 0.308), (2) formed a discrete genetic cluster separate from all marine populations (modal ∆k=2, PC1=14.8%), and had (3) less genetic diversity (Hd, π, Hexp) and (4) higher inbreeding (F) than marine populations.
