Fig. 1

Map showing the 27 sampled localities throughout the distribution of M simplex on the southern and southeast Atlantic coast of Brazil. Each color square represents one population (for details see table 1). The red highlighted area on the southeast coast is the gap in the distribution of M. simplex where we did not find the species besides our sampling effort, and the dashed line represents the limits of the sea–level during the last glacial maximum (approximately 21 Mya). The map was produced using a GIS program with free layers available at IBGE website (www.mapas.ibge.gov.br)
