Abstract
- Highlights: [•] We infer a dated phylogeny of the longtailed rattlesnakes from nuclear and mtDNA. [•] BI, ML and species tree analysis supported the monophyly of the longtailed species. [•] Longtailed rattlesnakes split form the C. atrox and C. viridis groups 5.1–8.9mya. [•] Longtailed rattlesnakes diverged from each other between 1.5 and 5.6mya. [•] The three longtailed rattlesnakes should be considered separate species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
