Cross‐scale interactions mediate local drivers of nonnative species richness

Ecography, EarlyView.
Many well‐supported hypotheses seek to explain drivers of nonnative species richness across spatial scales, but evidence for common patterns among regions and taxa remains inconclusive. This study investigates why consistent patterns are elusive by estimating and assessing cross‐scale interactions, wherein large‐scale factors contextualize patterns ...

Phylogenetic Systematics and Biogeography: Using Cladograms in Historical Biogeography Methods [PDF]

, 2012
Phylogenetic systematics (or cladistics) was proposed by the German entomologist Willi Hennig (1966). Since its formulation it has had a great impact on taxonomy and other biological disciplines such as biogeography, paleontology, and evolutionary biology.

Reconstructing post‐crisis recovery in the hinterlands of Constantinople: A high‐resolution first‐millennium CE pollen record from Lake Yeniçağa (NW Türkiye)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facing a novel plague pandemic, military invasions, and political–economic transformations, societies of the eastern Roman (Byzantine) empire had to adapt to a variety of pressures and new ways of exploiting their natural environments during the mid‐1st millennium CE.

The native flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (Saskatchewan, Canada): taxonomy, biogeography, habitats and conservation

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
This study reports for the first time a checklist of native vascular plants and provides a comprehensive analysis of the flora of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Region (RLBR) in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. To complete an inventory of the regional flora, I conducted intensive field investigations during 2010–2025 and employed detailed examination

A history of the biogeography of Amazonian fishes

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2018
The history of knowledge about Amazonian biogeography is as rich as its fish community, and a fascinating theme of study in itself. Several current paradigms and controversies about Amazonian fish biogeography are rooted in principles dating from the ...

Host–Parasite Association Dynamics Influence Dispersal and Population Genetics of Little Brown Myotis (Myotis lucifugus, Le Conte 1831) Ectoparasites

Ecology and Evolution
Host–parasite relationships can affect the dispersal and transmission of parasites. Myodopsylla insignis (Rothchild, 1903), a bat flea, and Spinturnix americanus (Banks, 1902), a bat wing mite, are two common ectoparasites of the little brown myotis ...

Archaeological and Biogeochemical Investigation of Past Human Relationships With Now‐Endangered Fish Species: Lake Sturgeon and American Eel in Southern Ontario, Canada

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the historical ecology and biogeography of two fish species that are currently endangered in the North American Great Lakes region, that were of great importance to the Indigenous people in the region, and that are the focus of ongoing conservation efforts on the part of descendant communities: lake sturgeon (Acipenser ...

The relative roles of in situ diversification and lineage dispersal underlying diversity patterns at the assemblage level

Oikos, EarlyView.
Speciation, extinction, and dispersal are the historical processes influencing the spatial distribution of lineages and strongly influence diversity patterns. Here, we apply a recently developed methodological approach to quantify the relative legacies in situ diversification history (i.e.
