Synopsis

Cladistic biogeography uses the distribution patterns of species to study their historical and evolutionary relationships. Revised extensively to reflect new research, this book is a concise exposition of the history, methods, and current applications in this field. The first edition, published in 1986, received excellent reviews and was widely used as a textbook. This new edition should prove equally popular. It draws on a wide range of animals and plants, from marine, terrestrial, and freshwater habitats, and incorporates the latest advances in this dynamic field.
