“…The northern South American flora shows closer ties to North America, whereas the southern South American flora is usually more closely allied with Australian or African taxa (Humphries and Parenti 1986;Crisci et al 1991), though the latter connections cannot yet be determined for the chloridoids.…”

“…Thus, unlike dispersalist hypotheses, vicariance hypotheses could be tested by searching for congruence in phylogenetic and distribution patterns among different organisms (Humphries and Parenti 1999;Parenti 2007). Cladistic biogeography also helped to move the discipline from a taxon-based approach centered on reconstructing the evolutionary history in space and time of individual lineages (e.g., Brundin 1966) toward a comparative "area biogeography" approach that aims to understand global distribution patterns through the comparison of area cladograms (Crisci et al 1991;Humphries and Parenti 1999).…”

“…Furthermore, by comparing area cladograms of several groups of organisms that inhabit the same region, one might find general biogeographic patterns-a "general area cladogram"-that presumably reflect the relationships among the areas of endemism based on their shared biotas (Nelson and Platnick 1981;Wiley 1988). For example, Crisci et al (1991) compared the area cladograms of numerous animal and plant lineages from South America and found two different biogeographic regions: northern "tropical" South America was related biogeographically to North America, whereas southern "temperate" South American showed closer biotic links to Australia.…”

Biogeography is the discipline of biology that studies the present and past distribution patterns of biological diversity and their underlying environmental and historical causes. For most of its history, biogeography has been divided into proponents of vicariance explanations, who defend that distribution patterns can mainly be explained by geological, tectonic-isolating events; and dispersalists, who argue that current distribution patterns are largely the result of recent migration events. This paper provides an overview of the evolution of the discipline from methods focused on finding general patterns of distribution (cladistic biogeography), to those that integrate biogeographic processes (event-based biogeography), to modern probabilistic approaches (parametric biogeography). The latter allows incorporating into biogeographic inference estimates of the divergence time between lineages (usually based on DNA sequences) and external sources of evidence, such as information on past climate and geography, the organism fossil record, or its ecological tolerance. This has revolutionized the discipline, allowing it to escape the dispersal versus vicariance dilemma and to address a wider range of evolutionary questions, including the role of ecological and historical factors in the construction of biomes or the existence of contrasting patterns of range evolution in animals and plants.

“…An approximation of this area may be obtained by looking at the distribution of many individual taxa, such as Azara Ruiz et Pav. (Flacourtiaceae), Escallonia L.f. (Escalloniaceae), Mummucidae and Daesiidae (Solifugae), Tristiridae (Orthoptera), Pompilocalus Roig-Alsina (Hymenoptera), and genera of Coleoptera (Kuschel, 1969;Crisci et al, 1991). Many distributions of genera and species groups of the plant family Asteraceae are also congruent with this distributional pattern, for example, Lucilia Cass., Noticastrum DC., and members of the tribe Nassauvieae (Crisci, 1974), such as Leucheria Lag., Nassauvia Comm.…”

“…The southern temperate region, the focus region of this study, is the area south of 30° south latitude in South America but also includes the Andean highlands north of this latitude. This area was named the Patagonian subregion by Kuschel (1969) and southern South America by Crisci et al (1991) (Figure 1). An approximation of this area may be obtained by looking at the distribution of many individual taxa, such as Azara Ruiz et Pav.…”

En estudios previos en Perezia se propusieron varias líneas evolutivas para el género y áreas de origen alternativas. Se desarrolla aquí un análisis filogenético sobre la base de caracteres morfológicos para poner a prueba dichas hipótesis y se aplican los métodos biogeográficos de areas ancestrales y de dispersión-vicariancia. Los resultados del análisis filogenético muestran que Perezia es un taxón monofilético si incluye a las recientemente excluidas Perezia nutans y P. prenanthoides, y sustentan a la mayoría de las líneas evolutivas previamente propuestas. Los resultados biogeográficos sugieren a los Andes del sur como probable área ancestral de Perezia, con múltiples dispersiones. Sobre la base de la evidencia geológica, paleoclimatológica, y fósil, se propone que el ancestro de Perezia podría haber habitado las áreas por encima de los bosques templados del sur de los Andes durante el Terciario.
