Evolutionary diversification of new Caledonian Araucaria.
PLoS ONE, 2014 New Caledonia is a global biodiversity hotspot. Hypotheses for its biotic richness suggest either that the island is a 'museum' for an old Gondwana biota or alternatively it has developed following relatively recent long distance dispersal and in situ ...

Phylogenetic biogeography of Araucaria (Araucariaceae)
Проблемы ботаники южной сибири и монголии, 2020 The analysis of molecular data of all 19 recent species of the genus Araucaria Juss. (Araucariaceae) wascarried out and original cladogramm was build. Based on the cladogramm, the map of correlations of the phylogeneticrelationships and the distribution of all recent Araucaria species is proposed.
