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.
