Abstract: It has been argued that historical biogeography, the study of how processes that occur over long periods of time influence the distribution of life forms, is in the midst of a scientific revolution. The aim of this paper is to analyze the evolution of historical biogeography during the first decade of the 21st century and to identify major trends for the near future. We constructed a database containing all articles which dealt with historical biogeography published in the Journal of Biogeography during 1998–2… Show more

“…Many analyses consider both vicariance and dispersal to explain the observed patterns (52, 25.6%), with a notable increase recently (1980s: 3, 1990s: 8, 2000s: 20, 2010s: 41). This might represent a general trend in biogeography towards using a combination of vicariance and dispersal explanations, which has been noted for papers published in the Journal of Biogeography (Posadas et al ., ). Additionally, there are several published track analyses that do not emphasize any particular biogeographical process, presenting the patterns identified and focusing mostly on biogeographical regionalization (49, 24.1% of the publications).…”

“…Once biotas have been identified (track analysis) and tested (cladistic biogeographical analysis), dating the vicariance events that isolated them seems the next logical step. Molecular dating of divergences between lineages has been suggested as a possible way to achieve this objective (Morrone & Crisci, ; Morrone, , ; Posadas et al ., ), while fossil data may also be used (Morrone, ). Heads (, ,c, , , ) has provided a critique of fossil‐based calibration of chronograms, considering that fossil ages given as minimum are ‘transmogrified’ into maximum ages.…”

“…Despite their great potential to advance both theoretical and applicative disciplines, biogeographical regionalization models have been largely developed on descriptive and empirical bases (Olson et al, 2001;Posadas, Grossi, & Ortiz-Jaureguizar, 2013), but only rarely tested analytically (Kreft & Jetz, 2010; but see Procheş, 2005) to quantify compositional differences among regions. However, in the last decade the increasing availability of species distribution and phylogenetic data coupled with the development of new methodological approaches (e.g., Kreft & Jetz, 2010) have fostered analytical tests at both global and regional scales (Ficetola, Mazel, & Thuiller, 2017;Holt et al, 2013;Rueda et al, 2010;Vilhena & Antonelli, 2015).…”

“…In my own experience, biogeography was hidden as a subdiscipline in, for instance, evolutionary biology or systematic biology courses and students were only brought into contact with the "patterns of biodiversity" as though they were static and unchangeable. Fortunately, today biogeography is blooming more than ever, with an increase in publications over the last decade (e.g., Posadas et al 2013).…”
