>found evidence of prior hybridization
between the 2 groups, based on the
presence of a presumptive European
mtDNA marker, although the population
was *morphometrically indistinguishable*
from African A m scutellata (Moritz and
Meusel, 1991). A large-scale allozyme
study also revealed that populations of this
region express significant levels of European-
derived introgression, although morphometrically
they are quite "African" (Lobo et
al, 1989)."
Sounds similar to what Katherine Darger found in florida.
