The impact of mutualisms on species richness
Mutualisms–cooperative interactions among different species–are known to influence global
biodiversity. Nevertheless, theoretical and empirical work has led to divergent hypotheses …

Testing for coevolutionary diversification: linking pattern with process
Coevolutionary diversification is cited as a major mechanism driving the evolution of
diversity, particularly in plants and insects. However, tests of coevolutionary diversification …

On the origin of endemic species in the Red Sea
Aim The geological and palaeo‐climatic forces that produced the unique biodiversity in the
Red Sea are a subject of vigorous debate. Here, we review evidence for and against the …

Bayesian estimation of speciation and extinction from incomplete fossil occurrence data
The temporal dynamics of species diversity are shaped by variations in the rates of
speciation and extinction, and there is a long history of inferring these rates using first and …

Reciprocal fitness feedbacks promote the evolution of mutualistic cooperation
Mutually beneficial interactions are ubiquitous in nature and have played a pivotal role for
the evolution of life on earth. However, the factors facilitating their emergence remain poorly …

Understanding the influence of host radiation on symbiont speciation through parasites of species flocks
(Adaptive) radiations have attracted evolutionary biologists for a long time as ideal model
systems to study patterns and processes of often rapid speciation. However, whereas a …

The biogeography of tropical reef fishes: endemism and provinciality through time
The largest marine biodiversity hotspot straddles the I ndian and P acific O ceans, driven by
taxa associated with tropical coral reefs. Centred on the I ndo‐A ustralian A rchipelago (IAA) …
