Filogenia molecular da família Dipsadidae (serpentes : Colubroidea)

Abstract

A relação filogenética entre os caenofídeos (serpentes avançadas) tem sido matéria de debate durante décadas. As principais questões para a sistemática eram representadas pela condição monofilética da família Colubridae, e a composição de sua subfamílias. Mais recentemente, novos métodos para inferir filogenias baseadas em critérios objetivos, bem como a utilização da biologia molecular, lançaram alguma luz sobre estas questões tradicionais. Aqui, são apresentados os resultados de duas análises filogenéticas moleculares das serpentes cenofídeas, focando principalmente nas serpentes neotropicais (subfamílias Xenodontinae e Dipsadinae). Otimização direta com base na máxima parcimônia, e homologia estática (alinhamento múltiplo), utilizando máxima parcimônia e máxima verossimilhança foram aplicados em uma matriz expandida de dados molecular. Os principais resultados de ambas as análises são: posicionamento de Acrochordus, Xenodermatideos e Pareatideos como grupos irmãos sucessivos de todos os caenofídeos restantes; viperídeos e homalopsideos são clados irmãos sucessivos de todos as demias serpentes, foram recuperados os seguintes clados monofiléticos dentro do crown-group Caenophidia: psammofídeos Afro-Asiaticos (incluindo Mimophis de Madagascar), Elapidae, Pseudoxyrhophiinae, Colubrinae, Natricinae, Dipsadinae e Xenodontinae. Homoroselaps está associada com os atractaspidídeos. Dois grupos taxonômicos superiores dentro de Caenophidia e uma nova subfamília dentro Dipsadidae foram nomeados. As análises filogenéticas sugerem mudanças taxonômicas dentro dos xenodontíneos; cinco novas tribos, oito novos gêneros foram criados e dois gêneros foram ressuscitados. Os gêneros Xenoxybelis e Pseudablabes foram sinonimizados com Philodryas; Liophis e Umbrivaga com Erythrolamprus e Lystrophis e Waglerophis com Xenodon

The phylogenetic relationship among the caenophidian (advanced) snakes has been a matter of debate for decades. The principal issues for the systematic were represented by the monophyletic condition of the large family Colubridae, and the composition of its subfamilies. More recently, new methods for infering phylogenies based on objective criteria, and the use of molecular biology, shed some light on these traditional issues. Here, two molecular phylogenetic analyses of caenophidian snakes focusing principally in the Neotropical snakes (subfamilies Xenodontinae and Dipsadinae) are presented. Direct optimization based on maximum parsimony, and static homology (multiple alignment) using maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood were applied on a expanded molecular data matrix. The major results of both analyses are: placement of Acrochordus, Xenodermatids, and Pareatids as successive outgroups to all remaining caenophidians; viperids and homalopsids are sucessive sister clades to all remaining snakes; the following monophyletic clades within crown group caenophidians: Afro- Asian psammophiids (including Mimophis from Madagascar), Elapidae, Pseudoxyrhophiinae, Colubrinae, Natricinae, Dipsadinae, and Xenodontinae. Homoroselaps is associated with atractaspidids. Two higher taxonomic clades within Caenophidia one new subfamily within Dipsadidae were nomed. The phylogenetic analyses suggest taxonomic changes within xenodontines, five new tribes, eight new genera were created and two genera were resurrected. The genera Xenoxybelis and Pseudablabes were synonymize with Philodryas; Liophis and Umbrivaga with Erythrolamprus; and Lystrophis and Waglerophis with Xenodon
