Data from: Lineage diversity within a widespread endemic Australian skink to better inform conservation in response to regional-scale disturbance

This dataset was used to examine the phylogeographic genetic structure of
Eastern three lined skink Bassiana duperreyi. It comprises  SNP
data used for population genetics and phylogenetic reconstruction. The
data were used to provide foundational work for the detailed taxonomic
re-evaluation of this species complex and to reinforce the need for
biodiversity assessment to include an examination of cryptic species
and/or cryptic diversity below the level of species. Such information on
lineage diversity within species and its distribution in the context of
disturbance at a regional scale can be factored into conservation planning
regardless of whether a decision is made to formally diagnose new species
taxonomically and nomenclaturally.
