Journal ArticleDOI
Cryptic vicariance in the historical assembly of a Baja California Peninsular Desert biota
TL;DR: The Peninsular Desert can no longer be considered a subset of the Sonoran Desert-it is a separate regional desert with its own unique evolutionary history, ecological arena, and conservation value.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial introgression and incomplete lineage sorting through space and time: phylogenetics of crotaphytid lizards
Jimmy A. McGuire,Charles W. Linkem,Michelle S. Koo,Delbert W. Hutchison,A. Kristopher Lappin,David I. Orange,Julio A. Lemos-Espinal,Brett R. Riddle,Jef R. Jaeger +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown with ecological niche modeling that the predicted geographical ranges of C. collaris, C. bicinctores, and C. reticulatus during glacial maxima could have provided enhanced opportunities for past hybridization, and proposed an “introgression conveyor” model to explain this unique pattern of mitochondrial variation in this region.
Journal ArticleDOI
A step-wise approach to integrating phylogeographic and phylogenetic biogeographic perspectives on the history of a core North American warm deserts biota
Brett R. Riddle,David J. Hafner +1 more
TL;DR: This paper develops a five-step approach for analysis of historical relationships among areas of endemism using a set of 22 clades drawn from the warm deserts biota of western North America, and demonstrates the reciprocal strengths (and weaknesses) of phylogeography and phylogenetic biogeography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity and Topographic Complexity: Modern and Geohistorical Perspectives
Catherine Badgley,Tara M. Smiley,Tara M. Smiley,Rebecca C. Terry,Edward Byrd Davis,Larisa R.G. DeSantis,David L. Fox,Samantha S. B. Hopkins,Tereza Jezkova,Marjorie D. Matocq,Nicholas J. Matzke,Jenny L. McGuire,Andreas Mulch,Brett R. Riddle,V. Louise Roth,Joshua X. Samuels,Caroline A.E. Strömberg,Brian J. Yanites +17 more
TL;DR: Reciprocal illumination among phylogenetic, phylogeographic, ecological, paleontological, tectonic, and climatic perspectives is an emerging frontier of biogeographic research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeography and systematics of the Peromyscus eremicus species group and the historical biogeography of North American warm regional deserts.
TL;DR: The sequence of divergence within the eremicus species group and causal association of geological events of the Neogene and Holocene provide a working hypothesis against which phylogeographic patterns among other arid-adapted species of the warm regional deserts of North America may be compared.
