Mammals rose to prominence in terrestrial ecosystems after the Cretaceous–Paleogene
mass extinction, but the mammalian lineages characteristic of Paleogene faunas began their …

The interchange between the previously disconnected faunas of North and South America
was a massive experiment in biological invasion. A major gap in our understanding of this …

If a community and its substrate are raised by tectonic uplift, the species present can either
die out in the area, survive in situ unchanged, or survive in situ with adaptation and …

Aim We investigate geographic patterns across taxonomic, ecological and phylogenetic
diversity to test for spatial (in) congruency and identify aggregate diversity hotspots in …

Aim We advocate an interdisciplinary approach to biogeography, integrating geology and
paleobiology to examine how biodiversity dynamics evolved as mountain ranges formed …

Tropical mountains are biodiversity hotspots. In particular, mountains in the Neotropics
exhibit remarkable beta diversity reflecting species turnover along elevational gradients …

Evolutionary and ecological processes that influenced the assembly of the New World flora
are best understood through investigation of spatio-temporal processes of specific lineages …

We assessed the variation of both composition and functional diversity of mammals along an
elevation gradient (1600–3600 masl) at the Tabaconas Namballe National Sanctuary …

The fossil record of North American Eocene mammals is best known from relatively low-
elevation 'basin center'fossil localities in intermontane depositional basins of the Western …

The distribution of the Alpine marmot released in the Northern Apennines has been largely
unstudied. In this note, we summarise the current distribution and the altitude range of the …
