Unraveling Biogeographic Boundaries Within the Sierra Madre Oriental, México: An Endemicity Analysis Using a Taxonomically Diverse Dataset

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
We provide boundaries of the Sierra Madre Oriental in Mexico through a multi‐taxa endemicity analysis. ABSTRACT The Sierra Madre Oriental (SMO) is a significant mountain range and one of Mexico's 14 biogeographical provinces. Its delimitation has been debated.

Trade and socioeconomic importance of an invasive giant snail in the endemic‐rich island of São Tomé, Central Africa

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 5, October 2024.
Abstract Managing invasive species is crucial to mitigate their negative impacts on ecosystems, yet conflicts may arise when their social benefits are disregarded. Human pressure on the endemic‐rich forests of São Tomé has been high since the island was discovered by the Portuguese in the 15th century, and numerous species have been introduced.

Phylogeography of the Iberian endemic butterfly Erebia palarica Chapman, 1905 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae): An integrative approach Filoxeografía do endemismo ibérico Erebia palarica Chapman, 1905 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae): un enfoque integrador

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 651-675, July 2024.
A double star‐like pattern in the COI haplotype network of Erebia palarica suggests a demographic expansion from two ancestral populations in this Iberian montane endemic. Seven microsatellite markers revealed a pattern of isolation by distance (IBD) along the Cantabrian Mountains, as opposed to different levels of genetic structure found in western ...

Geoclimatic drivers of diversification in the largest arid and semi‐arid environment of the Neotropics: Perspectives from phylogeography

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 14, July 2024.
Abstract The South American Dry Diagonal, also called the Diagonal of Open Formations, is a large region of seasonally dry vegetation extending from northeastern Brazil to northern Argentina, comprising the Caatinga, Cerrado, and Chaco subregions. A growing body of phylogeography literature has determined that a complex history of climatic changes ...

Evaluating ecosystem protection and fragmentation of the world's major mountain regions

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Conserving mountains is important for protecting biodiversity because they have high beta diversity and endemicity, facilitate species movement, and provide numerous ecosystem benefits for people. Mountains are often thought to have lower levels of human modification and contain more protected area than surrounding lowlands.
