The evolution of endothermy in Cenozoic mammals: a plesiomorphic‐apomorphic continuum
BG Lovegrove - Biological Reviews, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The evolution of endothermy in birds and mammals was one of the most important events in
the evolution of the vertebrates. Past tests of hypotheses on the evolution of endothermy in …

[HTML][HTML] Macroevolutionary dynamics and historical biogeography of primate diversification inferred from a species supermatrix
Phylogenetic relationships, divergence times, and patterns of biogeographic descent among
primate species are both complex and contentious. Here, we generate a robust molecular …

Late cenozoic palaeogeography of Sulawesi, Indonesia
AMS Nugraha, R Hall - Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology …, 2018 - Elsevier
Sulawesi has a remarkable biodiversity, an unusually rich endemic fauna, and is the largest
island in Wallacea, just west of the Wallace Line. Alfred Russel Wallace himself suggested it …

The biogeography of Sulawesi revisited: is there evidence for a vicariant origin of taxa on Wallace's “anomalous island”?
Sulawesi, the largest island in the Indonesian biodiversity hotspot region Wallacea, hosts a
diverse endemic fauna whose origin has been debated for more than 150 years. We use a …

Species delimitation, phylogenomics, and biogeography of Sulawesi flying lizards: a diversification history complicated by ancient hybridization, cryptic species, and …
The biota of Sulawesi is noted for its high degree of endemism and for its substantial levels
of in situ biological diversification. While the island's long period of isolation and dynamic …

[HTML][HTML] Nuclear versus mitochondrial DNA: evidence for hybridization in colobine monkeys
Background Colobine monkeys constitute a diverse group of primates with major radiations
in Africa and Asia. However, phylogenetic relationships among genera are under debate …

The strange blood: natural hybridization in primates
Hybridization between two closely related species is a natural evolutionary process that
results in an admixture of previously isolated gene pools. The exchange of genes between …

Biogeology of Wallacea: geotectonic models, areas of endemism, and natural biogeographical units
B Michaux - Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2010 - academic.oup.com
The concepts of biogeographical regions and areas of endemism are briefly reviewed prior
