The biogeography of Gabonese savannas: Evidence from termite community richness and composition
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 9, Page 1505-1518, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim The mosaic of savannas that persists in the forest‐dominant Congo Basin is thought to be palaeoclimatic relics, but past biogeographical processes that have formed and maintained these systems are poorly understood. Here, we explored the post‐Pleistocene biogeography of Gabon's savannas using termites as biological indicators to understand
