Harlequin Duck Genetic Data, North America, Greenland, and Iceland, 1952-2001
October 25, 2023
This data package is comprised of three tables with data from wintering Harlequin Ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) from Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Maine, Greenland, and Iceland. The first table contains available allele sizes for 7 microsatellite loci (Sfiµ1, Sfiµ4, Sfiµ9, Sfiµ10, Bcaµ10, Hhiµ2, Hhiµ5) and mtDNA control region haplotypes. The second table contains the mtDNA control region sequences used to assign haplotypes. The third table provides the geographic locations of sampling sites.

A phylogeographical study of the discontinuously distributed Harlequin Duck (Histrionicus histrionicus) A phylogeographical study of the discontinuously distributed Harlequin Duck (Histrionicus histrionicus)
Species distributions are often indicative of historical biogeographical events and contemporary spatial biodiversity patterns. The Harlequin Duck Histrionicus histrionicus is a sea duck of conservation concern that has a disjunct distribution, with discrete portions of its range associated with northern Pacific and Atlantic Ocean basins. Movement data indicate migratory connectivity...

Harlequin Duck recovery from the Exxon Valdez oil spill: A population genetics perspective Harlequin Duck recovery from the Exxon Valdez oil spill: A population genetics perspective
Concerns about Harlequin Duck (Histrionicus histrionicus) population recovery following the Exxon Valdez oil spill led biologists to ask whether birds located in different molting and wintering areas belong to genetically distinct and, thus, demographically independent populations. Owing to the lack of direct observations of movements among marine areas, three classes of genetic markers...
