Key features:

 

 

  • The first reference book to provide a comprehensive treatment of the biogreography of the Andean region



  •  
  • Includes 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 subjects



  •  
  • Discusses the relationships between the areas, formulating hypotheses explaining the relationships of different biotas, based on track and cladistic biogeographic analyses



  •  
  • Identifies cenocrons that were assembled in the different biotas



  •  
  • Contains maps that illustrate the distribution of particular taxa, area cladograms and vegetation profiles



  •  

 

 

 

 

 

This 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. Several maps illustrate the distribution of particular taxa, as well as area cladograms, diagrams and full-color vegetation profiles.

主要特點:

- 本書是第一本全面探討安第斯地區生物地理學的參考書籍
- 包含每個區域的同義詞列表及其特徵的植物和動物分類群的範例。廣泛的參考部分作為深入研究個別主題的切入點
- 討論各區域之間的關係,根據追蹤和系統發生生物地理分析,提出解釋不同生物群之間關係的假設
- 確定在不同生物群中組成的生物群落
- 包含地圖,說明特定分類群的分佈、區域系統發生樹和植被剖面

本書基於進化生物地理學的方法,對安第斯地區進行區域劃分。旨在幫助任何希望了解安第斯植物和動物的生物地理分佈模式的人,本書全面探討了三個子區、一個過渡區和16個省。提供了每個區域的同義詞列表和特徵分類群的範例,並討論了各區域之間的關係,以及解釋不同生物群組成的假設。幾張地圖說明了特定分類群的分佈,以及區域系統發生樹、圖表和全彩植被剖面。
