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 ...
Phylogeny, evolution and ecological speciation analyses of Imperata (Poaceae: Andropogoneae) in the Neotropics
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-03)
Imperata is a ubiquitous grass genus of the tribe Andropogoneae (Poaceae), distributed throughout the world. Previous systematic studies had established that the genus encompasses nine species although no phylogenetic ...
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 ...
