Population genetics of Himalayan langurs and its taxonomic implications

This study examines population genetic structure in Himalayan langurs, finding limited genetic differentiation and strong gene flow along elevation gradients, suggesting no need to split them into multiple species.

Globetrotting geckos: Historical biogeography suggests an Indian origin and an ''Out-Of-India'' dispersal for the cosmopolitan Hemidactylus geckos

This study reconstructs the biogeographic history of Hemidactylus geckos, finding an Indian origin and multiple dispersals from India to Africa and Asia.

Molecular phylogenetics and character evolution in Haplanthodes (Acanthaceae), an endemic genus from peninsular India.

This study investigates the molecular phylogeny and character evolution of Haplanthodes, an Indian endemic genus, and its relationship with Andrographis and Haplanthus.

Spatial patterns of phylogenetic diversity and endemism in the Western Ghats, India: a case study using ancient predatory arthropods

The paper analyzes phylogenetic diversity and endemism patterns in ancient arthropods across the Western Ghats using distribution data and phylogenetic analysis.

Integrative taxonomy confirms the species status of the Himalayan langurs, Semnopithecus schistaceus Hodgson 1840

This study uses integrative taxonomy to confirm the Himalayan langur as a distinct species, supporting the classification proposed by Hill (1939).
