Microallopatric Speciation in Southern African Dung Beetle Genus Macroderes Driven by Miocene Aridification and Ancestral Flight Loss

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Southern Africa harbours a diverse array of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae), with many species endemic to the region. Despite this diversity, the historical drivers of their evolution remain largely unexplored. This study investigates the evolutionary history of the flightless dung beetle genus Macroderes, testing its monophyly ...

Sticky Innovation, Limited Expansion: Biogeography and Evolutionary Ecology of Toepads in Geckos

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study investigates the evolutionary diversification and ecological significance of adhesive toepads in geckos. It examines how different toepad configurations (absent, basal, distal and fanlike) have evolved and relate to macroecological patterns.

Temperature‐Dependent Speciation in the Sundaland Region Driven by Interglacial Refugial Isolation in the Bulbophyllum lobbii Complex (Orchidaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The historical origins of biota in the Sunda Shelf region of Southeast Asia represent a long‐standing contentious issue in evolutionary biology. However, there is still no general agreement on the key factors driving the region's high species diversity and endemism in both plants and animals. Here, we inferred the evolutionary history of a
