As a dispersive lineage expands its distribution across a heterogeneous landscape, it
leaves behind allopatric populations with varying degrees of geographic isolation that often …

Aim A current model of rain forest population diversification in Sundaland specifies east–
west vicariance into refugia during the early Pleistocene. In some taxa, this division was …

Indochina and Sundaland are biologically diverse, interconnected regions of Southeast Asia
with complex geographic histories. Few studies have examined phylogeography of bird …

The role of historical factors in establishing patterns of diversity in tropical mountains is of
interest to understand the buildup of megadiverse biotas. In these regions, the historical …

Aim Physiological tolerances and biotic interactions along habitat gradients are thought to
influence species occurrence. Distributional differences caused by such forces are …

Aim The genetics of organisms currently isolated in refugia has received little attention
compared to post‐glacial expansions. We study the population history and connectivity of a …

Janzen's influential “mountain passes are higher in the tropics” hypothesis predicts restricted
gene flow and genetic isolation among populations spanning elevational gradients in the …

Palaeogeological events and climate oscillations profoundly impact the demographics and
distributions of small-range species, increasing the extinction risk. The largest water strider …

Mountains offer replicated units with large biotic and abiotic gradients in a reduced spatial
scale. This transforms them into well-suited scenarios to evaluate biogeographic theories …

The Meratus Mountains of south-east Borneo are biogeographically interesting due to their
isolation and potential endemicity. However, Meratus' birds have never been quantitatively …
