Diversification of the rainfrog Pristimantis ornatissimus in the lowlands and Andean foothills of Ecuador.
Geographic barriers and elevational gradients have long been recognized as important in species diversification. Here, we illustrate an example where both mechanisms have shaped the genetic structure of the Neotropical rainfrog, Pristimantis ornatissimus, which has also resulted in speciation. This...
