Matching global and regional distribution models of the recluse spider Loxosceles rufescens: to what extent do these reflect niche conservatism?
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2018)
© 2018 The Royal Entomological Society The Mediterranean recluse spider, Loxosceles rufescens (Dufour, 1820) (Araneae: Sicariidae) is a cosmopolitan spider that has been introduced in many parts of the world. Its bite can ...
Niche conservatism in a plant with long invasion history: the case of the Peruvian peppertree (Schinus molle, Anacardiaceae) in Mexico
(Royal Botanical Society of Belgium, 2020)
Background and aim - Invasive plants should only colonize habitats meeting the environmental conditions included in their native niches. However, if they invade habitats with novel environmental conditions, this can induce ...
Changing Only Slowly: The Role of Phylogenetic Niche Conservatism in Caviidae (Rodentia) Speciation
(Springer, 2020-04)
The dynamics of species diversification have attracted significant scientific attention in recent decades. Many lineages tend tomaintain their niche characteristics over evolutionary time, a phenomenon known as phylogenetic ...

Climatic niche breadths of the Atlantic Forest snakes do not increase with increasing latitude
(Oxford Univ Press, 2021-11-06)
The climatic niche is a central concept for understanding species distribution, with current and past climate interpreted as strong drivers of present and historical-geographical ranges. Our aim is to understand whether ...
Diversification mechanisms in the Andean grasshopper genus Orotettix (Orthoptera: Acrididae): Ecological niches and evolutionary history
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-03)
The Andes harbour an outstanding taxonomic and ecological diversity, for which several mechanisms promoting diversification, including ecological gradients and allopatric speciation, have been cited. The grasshopper genus ...
Climatic niche evolution in the Andean genus Menonvillea (Cremolobeae: Brassicaceae)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017-03)
The study of how climatic niches change over evolutionary time has recently attracted the interest of many researchers. Different methodologies have been employed principally to analyze the temporal dynamics of the niche ...
Climatic niche dynamics of three widespread cardiospermum (paullinieae, sapindaceae) species revealed possible dispersal pathways
(American Society of Plant Taxonomists, 2020-12)
The genus Cardiospermum comprises eight species distributed in the American continent, from central-eastern United States of America to central Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile; C. corindum, C. grandiflorum, and C. halicacabum ...
Biogeographical patterns and processes in the genus group Scotussae (Acrididae: Melanoplinae): an integrative approach
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-06)
A biogeographical study of the genus group Scotussae, a clade of grasshoppers endemic to the subtropical temperate region of the La Plata Basin, South America, was performed within a phylogenetic context to test whether ...
Ecological and Spatial Patterns Associated with Diversification of the Shrub Genus Tetraglochin along Southern-Central Andes (Rosaceae)
(Springer, 2019-02-26)
In addition to the degree of geographical isolation (sympatry, parapatry, allopatry and peripatry), ecology can be an important factor promoting diversification of lineages, both by niche divergence as well as niche ...
