Description: Evolutionary Biogeography of the Andean Region by Juan J. Morrone Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This book is the first to present a regionalization of the Andean region based on an evolutionary biogeographic approach. Aimed at anyone wishing to understand biogeographic patterns of distribution of plants and animals in the Andean region, the book provides a comprehensive treatment of the subregions, transition zones, and provinces. Publisher Description Key features:The first reference book to provide a comprehensive treatment of the biogreography of the Andean regionIncludes lists of the synonyms for each area and examples of the plant and animal taxa characterizing them. An extensive reference section serves as an entry point for more in-depth research on individual subjectsDiscusses the relationships between the areas, formulating hypotheses explaining the relationships of different biotas, based on track and cladistic biogeographic analysesIdentifies cenocrons that were assembled in the different biotasContains maps that illustrate the distribution of particular taxa, area cladograms and vegetation profilesThis book presents a regionalization of the Andean region, based on an evolutionary biogeographic approach. Aimed at anyone wishing to understand biogeographic patterns of distribution of Andean plants and animals, the book provides a comprehensive treatment of three subregions, one transition zone, and 16 provinces. Lists of the synonyms and examples of taxa characterizing each area are given, and the relationships between the areas discussed, alongside hypotheses explaining the assembly of different biotas.
