Evoregions of fleas and their small mammalian hosts: Do they coincide?
Boris R. Krasnov,
Georgy I. Shenbrot
Abstract:Combining the biogeography and phylogenetic patterns of parasite-host associations allows a better understanding of the history of parasite–host interactions, which can be achieved via biogeographic regionalization incorporating phylogenetic information. Recently, the concepts of evoregions (regions where a majority of species evolved from one or several ancestors inhabiting these regions) and evolutionary transition zones (regions of high phylogenetic turnover) have been proposed, coupled with a classificatio… Show more
