Abstract (EN): In order to assess the microgeographic heterogeneity of Y chromosome lineage's distribution in the north-western part of Iberian Peninsula, 409 male samples from the five districts of Northern Portugal and two districts of Southern Galicia were typed for 15 Y chromosome microsatellite markers. The results suggest that, in NW Iberia, barriers other than political were more important in shaping present Y chromosome lineage substructuring.
