Snippet: Genetic studies by identified hybrids in the general area of home-range overlap between a male L. braceatus and a female L. tigrinus; the hybrids displayed the tigrina pelage. Trigo et al. (2008) performed further genetic investigations with an expanded data set and found more of the same hybridizations. One animal tested by Trigo et al. (2008) was believed to be a hybrid in the opposite direction (mitochondrial DNA from L. tigrinus introgressed .....
Document: Genetic studies by identified hybrids in the general area of home-range overlap between a male L. braceatus and a female L. tigrinus; the hybrids displayed the tigrina pelage. Trigo et al. (2008) performed further genetic investigations with an expanded data set and found more of the same hybridizations. One animal tested by Trigo et al. (2008) was believed to be a hybrid in the opposite direction (mitochondrial DNA from L. tigrinus introgressed into a L. eolocolo) documenting additional crossbreeding within the group; however, the origin and "race" of that animal was unknown. Naturally occurring hybrids may come from areas of distributional overlap, and such individuals may exhibit morphological problems such as unusual penile structure and lack of spermatozoa in ejaculate, as was found in 1 adult male hybrid ).
