Species distribution models predict genetic isolation of Hetaerina vulnerata (Odonata, Calopterygidae: Hetaerina vulnerata Hagen in Selys, 1853)
We were interested in population isolation of Hetaerina vulnerata (Canyon Rubyspot damselfly) at the landscape-level in the southwestern U.S. We employed species distribution models (SDMs) at the Last Glacial Maximum, Mid-Holocene, current, and future climates to hypothesize current population structuring. Using ddRADseq data from individuals collected, we uncovered population structuring via PCA, Structure, FST, and phylogeographic analyses that partially corroborated our SDMs.
