Evolutionary factors and habitat filtering affect the pattern of Gerbillinae diversity [PDF]

Curr Zool
Abstract How ecological and evolutionary factors affect small mammal diversity in arid regions remains largely unknown. Here, we combined the largest phylogeny and occurrence dataset of Gerbillinae desert rodents to explore the underlying factors shaping present-day distribution patterns.
