Parsimony analysis of endemicity (PAE) was used to analyse the distributional patterns of 124 species of Mexican gymnosperms, using two different sample units: gridcells and biogeographical provinces. PAE analyses were ...

BIOGEOGRAPHY OF NEOTROPICAL PORCUPINES (RODENTIA, HYSTRICOGNATHI): INTEGRATING RECENT AND FOSSIL DATA THROUGH A PANBIOGEOGRAPHIC APPROACH. This paper analyzes the geographic and temporal distribution of the family ...

Aim The Mexican transition zone is a complex area where Neotropical and Nearctic biotic elements overlap. A previous study on mammal species has shown a great diversification in the area. We analyse the diversification of ...

(2) contrastation of the biotic components and identification of the vicariant events that freagmented them, through cladistic biogeography and comparative phylogeography

A panbiogeographic analysis of the distributional patterns of 196 species of eastern Pacific Isopoda led to the recognition of three generalized tracks, which correspond to major biotic components. The northern coldtemperate ...

The boundary between the Nearctic and Neotropical regions has been delineated using different approaches, methods and taxa. Using a paribiogeographical approach, identification of nodes can help understand the dynamics and ...

Track analysis of the Mexican species of Cerambycidae (Insecta, Coleoptera). A track analysis of 221 species belonging to 68 genera of Mexican Cerambycidae was undertaken in order to identify their main distributional ...
