Abstract
Hybrid zones among mussel species have been extensively studied in the northern hemisphere. In South America, it has only recently become possible to study the natural hybrid zones, due to the clarification of the taxonomy of native mussels of the Mytilus genus. Analysing 54 SNP markers, we show the genetic species composition and admixture in the hybrid zone between M. chilensis and M. platensis in the southern end of South America. Bayesian, non-Bayesian clustering and re-assignment algorithms showed that the natural hybrid zone between M. chilensis and M. platensis in the Strait of Magellan, Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego and the Falkland Islands shows clinal architecture. The hybrid zone can be divided into three different areas: the first one is on the Atlantic coast where only pure M. platensis and hybrid were found. In the second one, inside the Strait of Magellan, pure individuals of both species and mussels with variable degrees of hybridisation coexist. In the last area at the Strait in front of Punta Arenas City, fjords on the Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, and at the Beagle Channel, only M. chilensis and a low number of hybrids were found. According to the proportion of hybrids, bays with protected conditions away from strong currents would give better conditions for hybridisation. We do not find evidence of any other mussel species such as M. edulis, M. galloprovincialis, M. planulatus or M. trossulus in the zone.

Abstract
Hybridization following secondary contact may produce different outcomes depending on the extent to which genetic diversity and reproductive barriers have accumulated during isolation. The Japanese toad, Bufo japonicus, is distributed on the main islands of Japan. In the present study, we applied multiplexed inter-simple sequence repeat genotyping by sequencing to achieve the fine-scale resolution of the genetic cluster in B. j. japonicus and B. j. formosus. We also elucidated hybridization patterns and gene flow degrees across contact zones between the clusters identified. Using SNP data, we found four genetic clusters in B. j. japonicus and B. j. formosus and three contact zones of the cluster pairs among these four clusters. The two oldest diverged lineages, B. j. japonicus and B. j. formosus, formed a narrow contact zone consistent with species distinctiveness. Therefore, we recommend that these two subspecies be elevated to the species level. In contrast, the less diverged pairs of two clusters in B. j. japonicus and B. j. formosus, respectively, admixed over a hundred kilometers, suggesting that they have not yet developed strong reproductive isolation and need to be treated as conspecifics. These results will contribute to resolving taxonomic confusion in Japanese toads.

Abstract
Abstract
Discrepancies in geographic variation patterns between nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are the result of the complicated differentiation processes in organisms and are the key to understanding their true evolutionary processes. The genetic differentiation of the northern and Southern-Izu lineages of the Japanese newt, Cynops pyrrhogaster, was investigated through their single nucleotide polymorphism variations obtained via multiplexed ISSR genotyping by sequencing (MIG-seq). We found three genetic groups (Tohoku, N-Kanto and S-Kanto), that were not detected by mtDNA variations, in the northern lineage. N-Kanto has intermediate genetic characteristics between Tohoku and S-Kanto. The genetic groups are now moderately isolated from each other and have unique genetic characteristics. An estimation of the evolutionary history using the approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) approach suggested that Tohoku diverged from the common ancestor of S-Kanto and S-Izu. Then, S-Kanto and S-Izu split, and the recent hybridization between Tohoku and S-Kanto gave rise to N-Kanto. The origin of N-Kanto through the hybridization is relatively young and seems to be related to changes in the distributions of Tohoku and S-Kanto as a result of climatic oscillation in the Pleistocene. We conclude that the mitochondrial genome of S-Kanto was captured in Tohoku and that the original mitochondrial genome of Tohoku was entirely removed through hybridization.

Abstract
In the Himalayas, a number of secondary contact zones have been described for vicariant vertebrate taxa. However, analyses of genetic divergence and admixture are missing for most of these examples. In this study, we provide a population genetic analysis for the coal tit (Periparus ater) hybrid zone in Nepal. Intermediate phenotypes between the distinctive western "spot-winged tit" (P. a. melanolophus) and Eastern Himalayan coal tits (P. a. aemodius) occur across a narrow range of <100 km in western Nepal. As a peculiarity, another distinctive cinnamon-bellied form is known from a single population so far. Genetic admixture of western and eastern mitochondrial lineages was restricted to the narrow zone of phenotypically intermediate populations. The cline width was estimated 46 km only with a center close to the population of the cinnamon-bellied phenotype. In contrast, allelic introgression of microsatellite loci was asymmetrical from eastern P. a. aemodius into far western populations of phenotypic P. a. melanolophus but not vice versa. Accordingly, the microsatellite cline was about 3.7 times wider than the mitochondrial one.

Abstract
The use of genomic and phenotypic data to scan for outliers is a mainstay for studies of hybridization and speciation. Geographic cline analysis of natural hybrid zones is widely used to identify putative signatures of selection by detecting deviations from baseline patterns of introgression. As with other outlier-based approaches, demographic histories can make neutral regions appear to be under selection and vice versa. In this study, we use a forward-time individual-based simulation approach to evaluate the robustness of geographic cline analysis under different evolutionary scenarios. We modelled multiple stepping-stone hybrid zones with distinct age, deme sizes, and migration rates, and evolving under different types of selection. We found that drift distorts cline shapes and increases false positive rates for signatures of selection. This effect increases with hybrid zone age, particularly if migration between demes is low. Drift can also distort the signature of deleterious effects of hybridization, with genetic incompatibilities and particularly underdominance prone to spurious typing as adaptive introgression. Our results suggest that geographic clines are most useful for outlier analysis in young hybrid zones with large populations of hybrid individuals. Current approaches may overestimate adaptive introgression and underestimate selection against maladaptive genotypes.

Abstract
Hybrid zones occur as range boundaries for many animal taxa. One model for how hybrid zones form and stabilize is the tension zone model, a version of which predicts that hybrid zone widths are determined by a balance between random dispersal into hybrid zones and selection against hybrids. Here, we examine whether random dispersal and proxies for selection against hybrids (genetic distances between hybridizing pairs) can explain variation in hybrid zone widths across 131 hybridizing pairs of animals. We show that these factors alone can explain ∼40% of the variation in zone width among animal hybrid zones, with dispersal explaining far more of the variation than genetic distances. Patterns within clades were idiosyncratic. Genetic distances predicted hybrid zone widths particularly well for reptiles, while this relationship was opposite tension zone predictions in birds. Last, the data suggest that dispersal and molecular divergence set lower bounds on hybrid zone widths in animals, indicating that there are geographic restrictions on hybrid zone formation. Overall, our analyses reinforce the fundamental importance of dispersal in hybrid zone formation and more generally in the ecology of range boundaries.
