The purpose of this study was to achieve a hypothesis explaining the biogeographical history of the family Fanniidae, especially that of the species from Patagonia, the Neotropics, Australia, and New Zealand. We used "dispersal-vicariance analysis" (DIVA)

The Other Side of the Coin: Taxonomic Updates and Species Key of Herennia (Araneae: Nephilidae)
Coin spiders of the genus Herennia Thorell, 1877 are species-rich nephilids distributed across South, East, and Southeast Asia and Australasia. They are notable for ladder-shaped arboricolous webs, extreme sexual size dimorphism, and complex sexual ...

Geographic Distributions of Homosporous Fern Taxa: Does Dispersal Obscure Evidence of Vicariance?
The central problem in biogeography is that interactions between different processes result in the formation of historical patterns, such that it is difficult to discriminate the relative roles of vicariance and dispersal.

Background: The Palaeotropical pitcher plant genus Nepenthes (Nepenthaceae) is characterized by specialized nutrient sequestration strategies, narrow endemism, and a patchy distribution in which vicariance is believed to have played a fundamental role.

Aim: Species or higher taxa that are obviously dispersal-limited, but which occupy large geographical distributions, represent a biogeographical paradox.

The chinkara (Gazella bennettii, Sykes 1831) exhibits a broad distribution from Iran to India and has been categorized into five species: G. bennettii, G. christyi, and G. salinarum representing the Indian chinkara, and G. fuscifrons and G.

Evidence for Gondwanan vicariance in an ancient clade of gecko lizards.
Aim Geckos (Reptilia: Squamata), due to their great age and global distribution, are excellent candidates to test hypotheses of Gondwanan vicariance against post‐Gondwanan dispersal.
