FIGURE 3. Phylogeny of Profundulidae based on comparative COI sequence data, highlighting (in red) the phylogenetic position of samples from the newly discovered populations of P. chimalapensis (Sabinal, Suchiapa, and Ostuta rivers), as well as from the putative hybrids between P. chimalapensis and Tlaloc. For these samples, terminal labels consist of the species name followed by the voucher specimen in parentheses. For the remaining samples (in black), terminal labels consist of the species name followed by the GenBank accession number of the corresponding COI sequence. Outgroup (Fundulus heteroclitus) not shown. Nodal support as bootstrap values (B).

FIG. 1 in New records and range extensions to the Costa Rican freshwater fish fauna, with an updated checklist

FIG. 1. Map of Costa Rica, Middle America, showing the división into 18 major river drainage basins: Lago de Nicaragua (LN), Río Frío (RF), San Juan (SJ), San Carlos (SC), Sarapiquí (Sa), Tortuguero (To), Parismina (Pa), Matina (Ma) and Sixaola (Si) (Atlantic); Isla del Coco (IC), Nicoya (Ni), Tempisque (Te), Bebedero (Be), Barranca (Ba), Tárcoles (Ta), Pirrís (Pi), Térraba (Tr) and Coto (Co) (Pacific). Part of the Changuinola (Ch) River basin is located in the Costa Rican territory, however, this area was excluded, for practical purposes, from this review due to the lack of fish fauna given its elevation (+2000 m.a.s.l.). Shaded basins drain to the Pacific Ocean, pale basins drain to the Caribbean (Atlantic Ocean). Data from the continental basins was obtained from HydroSHEDS (Lehner et al. 2008). Data from the Isla del Coco basin was obtained from Díaz Bolaños et al. (2012). Map base made by Diego Elias (LSU) and edited by the author.

Distribution. Notably disjunct distribution in Madagascar with separate populations in the N (moister forests of the Sambirano region and in scattered forest fragments on the slopes of the Tsaratanana Massif), the NW (two areas, one ranging from the Manongarivo Special Reserve to the Mahavavy du Nord River, and a more S extension from the Betsiboka River and Ankarafantsika National Park N to the Maevarano River), and the CE (NE of Antananarivo, N of the Mangoro River as far as the Ambatovaky Special Reserve); the distribution in the N part of its range and its relation to the White-fronted Brown Lemur (FE. albifrons) remain unclear; generally speaking, it occurs inland of the range of the White-fronted Brown Lemur, but additional surveys are needed.
