Abstract
La Península Ibérica y el Sur de Francia parecen ser un centro de diversificación de Lumbrícidos, ya que en este área geográfica se encuentra una gran diversidad tanto de especies como de géneros, algunos de ellos endémicos de esta zona. Esta tesis doctoral pretende ahondar en el conocimiento de algunos de estos géneros endémicos, concretamente Zophoscolex, Prosellodrilus, Iberoscolex y Cataladrilus, géneros que apenas han sido incluidos en trabajos filogenéticos anteriores y cuya especie tipo no ha sido nunca incluida en dichos trabajos. Tras realizar campañas de muestreo para capturar ejemplares de estos géneros y realizar estudios filogenéticos amplificando los marcadores moleculares COI, 16S, 28S, ND1 y 12S amplificados mediante PCR, se obtuvieron resultados muy esclarecedores..
The Iberian Peninsula and the south of France appear to be a centre of Lumbricidae diversification, given the high diversity of species and genera in this geographical area, including some endemic to the region. This doctoral thesis aims to deepen our understanding of some of these endemic genera, specifically the genera Zophoscolex, Prosellodrilus, Iberoscolex and Cataladrilus. These genera have barely been included in previous phylogenetic works, and their type species have never been included in said works.After carrying out sampling campaigns to capture specimens of these genera and carrying out phylogenetic studies using the molecular markers COI, 16S, 28S, ND1 and 12S amplified by PCR, very important results were obtained..
