Current classification of the genusTamiopsis mainly based on pelage color pattern that is prone to seasonal variation or convergent adaptation to environmental selection. The arrangement of four species,Tamiops mcclellandii, Tamiops rodolphii, Tamiops swinhoeiandTamiops maritimus, is regarded as tentative due to difficulty in delineating species, especially the latter two species. We constructed multi‐locus phylogenies of all fourTamiopsspecies on the basis of paternal (Y‐chromosomalSRYandSMCY7), maternal (mitochondrial cytochromebgene) and biparental (autosomalIRBP, RAG1andPRKCI) sequences. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian tree‐constructing methods resulted in phylogenies with similar topologies. All genetic markers supported diversification of three main lineages: (1)T. mcclellandii; (2)T. rodolphii; (3)T. swinhoei–maritimuscomplex. On the basis of 24T. maritimusfrom five localities and 10T. swinhoeifrom four localities,T. swinhoeiandT. maritimuswere not reciprocally monophyletic. The six populations of theT. swinhoei–maritimuscomplex were monophyletic in all loci, except for autosomal loci in oneT. maritimuspopulation from Tam Dao, Vietnam. Autosomal phylogenies were more similar to Y‐chromosomal than to mitochondrial phylogenies. Incongruence between nuclear and mitochondrial phylogenies indicates that eitherT. maritimusfrom Taiwan orT. maritimusfrom Phu Yen, Vietnam probably descended from ancient hybridization. Diversification of the three mainTamiopslineages was estimated to occur 8.8–6.7 million years ago (mya) and may have been affected by rapid uplift of the Himalayan Mountains in the western part of their range. Multiple divergences from 5.8 to 1.7 mya likely led to the formation of modernTamiopsspecies. All six populations ofT. swinhoei–maritimuscomplex could be regarded as distinct species. Divergence amongT. rodolphiipopulations in mitochondrial DNA was also at the interspecies level. Our analyses highlight the underestimation of species diversity in the genusTamiops.
