The role of historical barriers in the diversification processes in open vegetation formations during the Miocene/Pliocene using an ancient rodent lineage as a model
The Neotropics harbors a high diversity of species and several hypotheses have been
proposed to account for this pattern. However, while species of forested domains are …
