Biogeographical Convergence

FIGURE 1.1 Hypothetical evolutionary history from time tg to implying a temporal succession of biogeographic divergence and convergence events. A-F geographic areas a-e lineages. [Pg.5]

Events of biogeographical convergence like those described for Mesozoic ammonites (Cecca, 2002) or for plant and animal taxa from the Mexican Transition Zone [Pg.5]

Biogeographical convergence is produced when different biotas are put into contact (Hallam, 1974). It possibly results in dispersal and reticulated, nonhierarchical, evolution of biotas. Convergent biotas are analogous to hybrids in systanatics and therefore cannot be resolved with cladistic techniques that are tuned to the discovery of branching hierarchical relationships. [Pg.3]
