Taiwan presents an excellent opportunity to build a phylogeographic paradigm for fine-
scaled differentiation occurring within short distances on an single island. Due to the …

Aim Phylogeographic studies show how historical and current changes in landscapes shape
the geographic distribution of genetic diversity in species of animals and plants. In particular …

We developed an approach that combines distribution data, environmental geographic
information system layers, environmental niche models, and phylogenetic information to …

Despite encompassing a relatively small geographical area, montane regions harbour
disproportionately high levels of species diversity and endemism. Nonetheless, relatively …

abstract Aim Effective conservation policies rely on information about population genetic
structure and the connectivity of remnants of suitable habitats. The interaction between …

Studies about diversification of Neotropical open-habitat organisms are scarce, especially in
frogs, in which almost all studied species from Cerrado, Chaco, and Caatinga are mainly …

Quaternary climatic oscillations and geography are of primary importance in shaping
intraspecific genetic diversity. We examined the diversification patterns and inferred …

Distributed across topographically complex landscapes that vary from lowland to high
elevation, the Atlantic Forest harbors one of the richest biotas worldwide. Atlantic Forest …

Although biodiversity gradients have been widely documented, the factors governing broad‐
scale patterns in species richness are still a source of intense debate and interest in …

Leptobrachium ailaonicum is a vulnerable anuran restricted to a patchy distribution
associated with small mountain streams surrounded by forested slopes at mid-elevations …
