The victory of the dispersalist school of macrobiogeography after Darwin contributed to the acceptance of Beijerinck s special rule about microbial distribution. A common ground of dispersal placed exceptional ubiquity within a broader framework that joined macrobial and microbial biogeography into a continuum of distribution (O Malley, 2008, p. 318).

In addition to the cactophilic habitat, there are at least three other yeast habitats where dispersal is primarily by animal vector wood, flowers and sap (slime) fluxes. The potential diversity of yeast associated with beetles that bore in wood is high (Suh et al., 2005) and there is evidence that the beetles are the means of dispersal (Ganter, 2006). However, neither the biogeography of yeast from this habitat nor genetic...

Whether these are caused by the wind dispersal itself, by limitations related to the breeding system of the different fern species or by a combination of factors is unclear. More work on historical biogeography of the different fern lineages is needed but already it seems clear that for ferns the Baas Becking hypothesis can be rejected.
