Wallace's Line and plant distributions: two or three phytogeographical areas and where to group Java?

TL;DR: P phenetic analyses of 7340 species distributions revealed a stronger partitioning of Malesia into three instead of two regions: the western Sunda Shelf minus Java, central Wallacea, and the eastern Sahul Shelf (New Guinea).
Journal ArticleDOI

New Guinea has the world’s richest island flora

Rodrigo Cámara-Leret, +113 more
- 05 Aug 2020 - 
TL;DR: A catalogue of the vascular flora of New Guinea indicates that this island is the most floristically diverse in the world, and that 68% of the species identified are endemic to New Guinea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macaranga and Mallotus species (Euphorbiaceae) as indicators for disturbance in the mixed lowland dipterocarp forest of East Kalimantan (Indonesia)

TL;DR: Using multiple regression analysis, combinations of Macarangaand Mallotus species were formed and used to predict the separate forest structural parameters and the general level of disturbance of a forest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Historical distribution of Sundaland’s Dipterocarp rainforests at Quaternary glacial maxima

TL;DR: Although Dipterocarp species richness was generally lower at the LGM, areas of high species richness were mostly found off the current islands and on the emergent Sunda Shelf, indicating substantial species migration and mixing during the transitions between the Quaternary glacial maxima and warm periods such as the present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular phylogeny of Macaranga, Mallotus, and related genera (Euphorbiaceae s.s.): insights from plastid and nuclear DNA sequence data.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors sequenced one plastid (trnL-F) and three nuclear (ITS, ncpGS, phyC) markers for species representative of two closely related, large paleo(sub)tropical genera.
