Extensive gene flow among populations of the cavernicolous shrimp at the northernmost distribution margin in the Ryukyu Islands, Japan

Marine cave habitats in the Ryukyu Islands, Indo-West Pacific, are located at the northern edge of the distribution of many cave-dwelling species. At distribution margins, gene flow is often more restricted than that among core populations due to the smaller effective population size. Here, we used...
