Diversification patterns in the CES clade (Brassicaceae tribes Cremolobeae, Eudemeae, Schizopetaleae) in Andean South America
(Wiley, 2016-08)
Dated molecular phylogenetic trees show that the Andean uplift had a major impact on South American biodiversity. For many Andean groups, accelerated diversification (radiation) has been documented. However, not all Andean ...
Contribution of differential diversification rates to current broad-scale patterns os species richness in south american birds
(UniandesMaestría en Ciencias BiológicasFacultad de CienciasDepartamento de Biología, 2010)
Multiple studies have revealed relationships between current spatial patterns of species richness and various environmental factors. However, little is known about the origin of these relationships in terms of processes ...
Biogeographic patterns and diversification dynamics of the genus Cardiodactylus Saussure (Orthoptera, Grylloidea, Eneopterinae) in Southeast Asia
(Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2019)
A complex biogeographic history of diversification in Neotropical lancehead pitvipers (Serpentes, Viperidae)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-03)
Based on literature, we had predicted that the diversification within the Neotropical snake genus Bothrops occurred along a latitudinal gradient from north to south, with diversification into unoccupied niches through ...
Biogeographic and diversification patterns of Neotropical Troidini butterflies (Papilionidae) support a museum model of diversity dynamics for Amazonia
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTDLONDON, 2012)
Background: The temporal and geographical diversification of Neotropical insects remains poorly understood because of the complex changes in geological and climatic conditions that occurred during the Cenozoic. To better ...
A palaeobiogeographic model for biotic diversification within Amazonia over the past three million years
(ROYAL SOCLONDON, 2012)
Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain high species diversity in Amazonia, but few generalizations have emerged. In part, this has arisen from the scarcity of rigorous tests for mechanisms promoting speciation, and ...
Species delimitation, patterns of diversification and historical biogeography of the Neotropical frog genus Adenomera (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(John Wiley & SonsOxford, 2014-05)
Aim
For many taxa, inaccuracy of species boundaries and distributions hampers inferences about diversity and evolution. This is particularly true in the Neotropics where prevalence of cryptic species has often been ...
Species delimitation, patterns of diversification and historical biogeography of the Neotropical frog genus Adenomera (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-05-01)
AimFor many taxa, inaccuracy of species boundaries and distributions hampers inferences about diversity and evolution. This is particularly true in the Neotropics where prevalence of cryptic species has often been demonstrated. ...
Diversification patterns and size evolution in caviomorph rodents
(Oxford University Press, 2017-08)
Caviomorph rodents are one of the most diverse mammalian groups in the Neotropics; they display astonishing eco-morphological variation, including unparalleled size range. Here we analyse evolutionary patterns among extant ...
