Filogenia e taxonomia dos veados cinza (Mazama gouazoubira e M. nemorivaga)

Abstract

O gênero Mazama (Mammalia: Cervidae) engloba as espécies de cervídeos neotropicais de pequeno porte e chifres simples. A alta taxa de convergência morfológica e diversificação rápida e recente dificultam a resolução das lacunas na sua história evolutiva. Estudos envolvendo análises moleculares indicaram que Mazama é um gênero polifilético, com uma subdivisão das suas espécies em dois clados (veados vermelhos e cinza). No presente estudo foram inferidas as relações filogenéticas e o tempo de divergência das espécies de veados cinza M. gouazoubira e M. nemorivaga, utilizando dois genes mitocondriais (Cytb e COI) e dois genes nucleares (IL16 e MGF). A análise de coalescência corroborou com os resultados anteriores, separando essas duas espécies do restante das espécies de Mazama. Além disso, as duas espécies são alocadas em clados separados e monofi léticos, representando diferentes gêneros. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que as duas espécies representam complexos de linhagens crípticas, com ambas as diversificações tendo iniciado no final do Pleistoceno (1,62-1,65 Myr). A espécie M. gouazoubira foi subdividida em cinco clados de distribuição simpátrica em grande parte da sua ocorrência. A espécie M. nemorivaga foi separada em três clados, com distribuições biogeográficas distintas e correspondentes às áreas de endemismo da Amazônia. O grande número de linhagens identificadas no presente estudo indica o caráter emergencial de uma delimitação e revisão sistemática acurada para as espécies desse gênero. Essas linhagens detectadas representam hipóteses taxonômicas a serem testadas utilizando outras metodologias de análise complementares como, citogenética, morfometria, ecologia, comportamento e reprodução

The genus Mazama includes neotropical deer species of small sizes and simple antlers. Morphological convergences, in addiction to rapid and recent diversification, make the resolution of gaps in their evolutionary history difficult. Initial molecular analyses indicated that Mazama is a polyphyletic genus with species subdivided into two clades (gray and red deer). In this study we inferred the phylogenetic relationships and divergence time of the gray brocket deer species M. gouazoubira and M. nemorivaga using two mitochondrial genes (Cytb and COI) and two nuclear genes (IL16 and MGF). The coalescence analysis corroborated the previous results, separating these two species from the remaining Mazama species. Moreover, the two species were allocated into separate monophyletic clades, representing different genera. These results indicate that the two species represent complexes of cryptic lineages, whose diversifications started in the Late Pleistocene (1.62 to 1.65 Myr). The M. gouazoubira species was subdivided into five clades with sympatric distribution. The M. nemorivaga species was separated into three distinct clades, corresponding to areas of Amazon biogeographical endemism. The large number of lineages identified in this study indicates need for an accurate delimitation and systematic review for the Mazama species. These findings may represent hypotheses of taxonomic lineages to be tested using other analysis methods, such as cytogenetics, morphology, ecology, behavior and reproduction strategies
