Abstract
This dataset comprises exon and mtDNA data from land snails of the genus Catellotrachia, endemic to the Australian Arid Zone (AAZ), based mainly on fresh but also paratypic material, in order to test mtDNA-based taxonomic hypotheses. The dataset contains alignment and tree files of both the mtDNA and nDNA (exon) datasets, along with the partition files that were generated using IQ-TREE 2 and finally used for a species tree constructed using ASTRAL. Moreover, the dataset includes output files of the different landscape genetic analyses performed based on the SNP-based dataset in Geneland and a Bash script file including commands that were used to analyse the data, and several folders used for output files when running the two example read files provided.

File: nDNA_770_exons_IQ-TREE2_ASTRAL.zip
Description: This file contains the input alignment (Phylip) and partition files for different partition schemes as well as tree files of the IQ-TREE 2 and ASTRAL analyses
File: scripts.zip
Description: This file contains a Bash script (/base_files/exon_capture_Catellotrachia_scripts.sh) including various commands used to analyse the exon-capture data plus required Python scripts (/python_scrips). Moreover, it includes exon data for Thersites novaehollandiae (/Thersites_exons) obtained from Teasdale et al. (2016) and used as reference for mapping and phylogenetic analyses (outgroup)
Code/software
The majority of files can be opened with a text editor or a PDF viewer. The output tree files can be viewed with software such as FigTree. The command lines to analyse the data can be run with the software mentioned in the Bash script
