| dc.description.abstract | Oceanic islands lacking connections to other land are extremely isolated from sources of potential colonists and have acquired their biota mainly through dispersal from geographically distant areas. Hence, isolated island biota constitutes interesting models to infer biogeographical mechanisms of dispersal, colonization, differentiation, and speciation. Limpets of the genus Cellana (Nacellidae: Patellogastropoda) show limited dispersal capacity but are broadly distributed across the Indo-Pacific including many endemic species in isolated oceanic islands. Here, we examined main distributional patterns and geographic boundaries among Cellana lineages with special emphasis in the relationships of Southern Hemisphere oceanic islands species. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on mtDNA (COI) recognized three main clades in Cellana including taxa from different provinces of the Indo-Pacific. Clear genetic discontinuities characterize the biogeography of Cellana and several lineages are associated to particular areas of the Indo-Pacific supporting the low dispersal capacity of the genus across recognized biogeographical barriers in the region. However, evolutionary relationships within Cellana suggest that long-distance dispersal processes have been common in the history of the genus and probably associated to the origin of the species in Hawaii and Juan FernaÂndez Archipelago. Therefore, the presence of Cellana species in geographically distant Southern Hemisphere oceanic islands, such as the Juan FernaÂndez Archipelago, suggests that long-distance dispersal mediated by rafting may have played an important role in the biogeography of the genus. | es_ES |

Grant-in-Aid for JSPS Fellows No. 207024 to TN from the Japan Society for Promotion of Science Research Program 0273. At the same time, this research was supported by the projects P05-002 ICM and PFB 023 (Instituto de EcologõÂa y Biodiversidad IEB) to EP and CAG-W. New Cellana specimens from Campbell Island, French Polynesia and Juan FernaÂndez Archipelago included in this study were collected following International legislations. Samples of C. ardosidea from Robinson Crusoe Island were collected under the Technical Memorandum P.INV NÊ 011/2010 SUBPESCA. The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript. | es_ES |
