Comparative phylogeography of unglaciated eastern North America.
Regional phylogeographical studies involving co-distributed animal and plant species have been conducted for several areas, most notably for Europe and the Pacific Northwest of North America. Until recently, phylogeographical studies in unglaciated eastern North America have been largely limited to animals. As more studies emerge for diverse lineages (including plants), it seems timely to asses...
متن کاملOn the identity of Chironius flavolineatus (Serpentes: Colubridae).
The snake genus Chironius Fitzinger, 1826 is endemic to the Neotropical region, occurring from Honduras to Uruguay and northeastern Argentina. Some species of the genus have taxonomic and/or nomenclatural problems, such as C. flavolineatus which lacks agreement in the literature about its authorship and type locality. Some researchers have been suggesting Jan (1863) as the author of the species...
متن کاملTaxonomic revision of Drymoluber Amaral, 1930 (Serpentes: Colubridae).
The present study is a taxonomic revision of the genus Drymoluber Amaral, 1930, using meristic and morphometric characters, aspects of external hemipenial morphology and body coloration. Sexual dimorphism occurs in D. dichrous and D. brazili but was not detected in D. apurimacensis. Morphological variation within D. dichrous is related to geographic distance between populations. Furthermore, va...
متن کاملDistributions of exotic plants in eastern Asia and North America.
Although some plant traits have been linked to invasion success, the possible effects of regional factors, such as diversity, habitat suitability, and human activity are not well understood. Each of these mechanisms predicts a different pattern of distribution at the regional scale. Thus, where climate and soils are similar, predictions based on regional hypotheses for invasion success can be t...
متن کاملBiogeographic synthesis of secondary succession rates in eastern North America
In the Eastern Deciduous Forest (EDF) of North America, over a century of studies of secondary succession has produced a standard descriptive model of the transition of croplands to forest, namely colonization by annual herbs, followed by dominance by perennial herbs and grasses, and subsequent stages of woody species colonization and dominance (Oosting, 1942; Keever, 1950; Bazzaz, 1963). Addit...
