Popis: Electrophoretic study of 26 gene loci was carried out on Bathygobius soporator from the Atlantic side of Panama, and B. ramosus and B. andrei from the Pacific side of Panama. The most closely related pair is B. soporator and B. andrei. The predicted divergence time is about 2.5 million years, which is in accord with geological evidence on the rise of the Panama land bridge. B. ramosus is the distant member of the trio, about equidistant from the other pair.
