Diversity and niche evolution along aridity gradients in north american lizards (phrynosomatidae).

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2013

Wiens John J, Kozak Kenneth H, Silva Natalia

Abstract excerpt

Deserts occupy approximately 12% of the Earth's land surface, and are thought to have species poor but highly specialized biotas. However, few studies have examined the evolutionary origins of desert biotas and of diversity patterns along aridity gradients. Further, it is unclear if species occur...
