Inverse Latitudinal Diversity Gradient, Systematics and Historical Biogeography in the Gomphocerinae Grasshoppers (Orthoptera, Acrididae)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG), that is, the increase in species richness from the poles to the equator, is one of the oldest known ecological patterns. Its inverse (iLDG), where species richness increases toward higher latitudes, is less common but has recently attracted growing scientific interest.

The Large Carpenter Bees (Xylocopa, Apidae) of the Neotropical Region: Phylogenetics, Classification and Biogeography

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The large carpenter bees of the genus Xylocopa comprise almost 400 species distributed worldwide. Their large body and ability to build nests through woodworking make them one of the most remarkable groups of bees. In the Neotropics, they comprise over 100 species occurring in tropical and subtropical environments including islands in the ...

Out‐of‐Africa: Origin of the Disjunct Distribution of Paleotropical Eneopterinae Crickets (Gryllidae, Xenogryllini)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many groups of terrestrial plants and animals display a disjunct distribution pattern in the Paleotropics, being found almost exclusively in tropical Africa and Asia. The origin of such a pattern may be manifold, particularly for older lineages where plate tectonics potentially played an important role.
