“…Globally, montane tropical rainforests are renowned for their high levels of endemism (Blackburn & Measey, ; Bell et al ., ; Grismer et al ., ; Grismer, ; Tolley et al ., ), and this is becoming even more evident in Southeast Asia where recent research in the upland regions of Peninsular Malaysia has yielded 21 new, co‐distributed species of amphibians and reptiles across five different mountain systems in only 8 years (Grismer, , b, , ; Grismer et al ., , , , , , , 2013, 2014a, b, c; Wood et al ., , ; Chan et al ., , , ; Grismer, Norhayati & Chan, ; Grismer & Chan, ; Johnson et al ., ; Loredo et al ., ). It is noteworthy, however, that the phylogeographic relationships of these species bear no overarching pattern, indicating that a single historical event cannot account for speciation across this broad, upland landscape of sky‐island archipelagos (Grismer et al ., in prep.…”
