Defining Evolutionary Conservation Units in the Macedonian Crested Newt, <i>Triturus macedonicus</i> (Amphibia; Salamandridae), in a Biodiversity Hotspot

In this study, we used genetic approaches to assess the conservation status of a protected amphibian species, the Macedonian crested newt, <i>Triturus macedonicus</i>, in Northern Pindos National Park (Epirus, Greece). Mitochondrial DNA sequences and multilocus genotypes of individuals f...
