The Spatial Distribution of mtDNA and Phylogeographic Analysis of the Ant Cardiocondyla kagutsuchi (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Japan

<p>In this study, we investigated the geographical distribution of haplotypes of <em>Cardiocondyla kagutsuchi</em> Terayama in Japan using COI/II mitochondrial DNA. We also examined their genealogy with <em>C. kagutsuchi</em> in other areas and their close relative spec...
