spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/9719 A genetic and morphological analysis of species complexes within the genus Patella Ridgway, Tyrone Melville Branch, George M Cook, Barbara Zoology Bibliography: leaves 128-138. Limpets of the genus Patella are very common intertidal molluscs that have a widespread world-wide distribution. Despite this, the systematics of the genus is still in a state of confusion. However, in comparison to other regions, the southern African representatives of Patella are fairly well characterised. Nevertheless, some long-standing taxonomic uncertainties still exist for certain of the southern African species. This thesis combines both morphological and genetic techniques to solve these uncertainties. 2014-11-18T18:27:39Z 2014-11-18T18:27:39Z 1998 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9719 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
