Rhinopoma muscatellum is one of the six species of mouse-tailed bats (Rhinopomatidae) that is common in Iran with over 70 reported localities. We investigated phylogeographic relationships and evolutionary history in this species from Iran using two mitochondrial DNA markers, D-loop region (D-loop, 464 bp) and cytochrome b (Cytb, 726 bp). We found a low degree of genetic diversity in the Iranian populations of R. muscatellum (π = 0.0061 for D-loop and π = 0.0013 for Cytb), that shows the… Expand
