Phylogeography is a discipline concerned with various relationships between gene
genealogies—phylogenetics—and geography. The word “phylogeography” was coined in …

Orangutans are the only great apes found outside of Africa. At present, they occur only on
the two large Sunda‐shelf islands of Sumatra and Borneo. Most researchers recognize two …

This book describes one of our closest relatives, the orangutan, and the only extant great
ape in Asia. It is increasingly clear that orangutan populations show extensive variation in …

Comparisons of genetic variation between humans and great apes are hampered by the fact
that we still know little about the demographics and evolutionary history of the latter species …

Finalist for 2009 The Council on Botanical & Horticultural Libraries Literature Award! A Fresh
Look at Taxonomy The most fundamental of all biological sciences, taxonomy underpins any …

We report here on new cranial data relevant to hominoid taxonomic analyses, based on a
study of 438 skulls belonging to 13 nonhuman living hominoid taxa. Nineteen landmarks …

Orangutans are amongst the most craniometrically variable of the extant great apes, yet
there has been no attempt to explicitly link this morphological variation with observed …

Abstract The Southeast Asian Sunda archipelago harbors a rich biodiversity with a
substantial proportion of endemic species. The evolutionary history of these species has …

This paper examines orangutan population history and evolution through a meta-analysis of
seven loci collected from both Sumatran and Bornean orangutans. Within orangutans, most …

We argue that the logical outcome of the cladistics revolution in biological systematics, and
the move towards rankless phylogenetic classification of nested monophyletic groups as …
