Interesting: Anguis fragilis seperated in three species? Are you convinced of that?

You want me to quote myself? :shock: ;)

"While the range of their Anguis fragilis s.s. is clearly undersampled (especially Italy and the Iberian Peninsula) and the
mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenies are not entirely congruent, the available molecular and morphological
data seem to warrant the proposed split."

In other words, the divergence seems to be just too big, Peter. Plus some morpho stuff.

Apart from that, nothing is ever certain. Blame it on the gene flow.
