Data from: Long-term differences in extinction risk among the seven forms of ...
Rarity is widely used to predict the vulnerability of species to extinction. Species can be rare in markedly different ways, but the relative impacts of these different forms of... -
Data from: Anthropogenic transport of species across native ranges: unpredict...
Human activities are responsible for the translocation of vast amounts of organisms, altering natural patterns of dispersal and gene flow. Most research to date has focused on... -
Data from: Mating system variability in a mouthbrooding cichlid fish from a t...
Intraspecific variability in mating behavior and disparities between social and reproductive behavior add complexity to the description of animal mating systems. A previously... -
Data from: Local selection modifies phenotypic divergence among Rana temporar...
In ectotherms, variation in life-history traits among populations is common and suggests local adaptation. However, geographic variation itself is not a proof for local... -
Data from: Global mammal betadiversity show parallel assemblage structure in ...
The taxonomic, phylogenetic and trait dimensions of betadiversity each provide unique insight into the importance of historical isolation and environmental conditions in shaping... -
Morphological diversity in the foraminiferal genus Marginopora
Benthic foraminifera, and certainly symbiont-bearing (large) benthic foraminifera are generally considered to have large geographic ranges in combination with significant... -
Data from: Sympatric serpentine endemic Monardella (Lamiaceae) species mainta...
Ecological differentiation and genetic isolation are thought to be critical in facilitating coexistence between related species, but the relative importance of these phenomena,... -
Data from: Post-glacial recolonization of the North American Arctic by Arctic...
Aims: We investigated post-glacial recolonization of the North American Arctic by Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and examined potential hybridization between different glacial... -
Data from: Multilocus analysis of nucleotide variation and speciation in thre...
Historical tectonism and climate oscillations can isolate and contract the geographical distributions of many plant species, and they are even known to trigger species... -
Data from: Selfing ability and dispersal are positively related, but not affe...
Dispersal and breeding system traits are thought to affect colonization success. As species have attained their present distribution ranges through colonization, these traits... -
Comprehensive mapping and compositional analysis of the Alca obsidian source,...
The data archive includes compositional and geographic data for geologic samples from the Alca obsidian source in the Peruvian Andes. Compositional data for geologic samples... -
Data from: A multilocus sequencing approach reveals the cryptic phylogeograph...
Discordant phylogeographical patterns among species with similar distributions may not only denote specific biogeographical histories of different species, but also could... -
Data from: Testing range-limit hypotheses using range-wide habitat suitabilit...
Determining the causes of geographic range limits is a fundamental problem in ecology, evolution, and conservation biology. Range limits arise due to fitness and dispersal... -
Disrupted transportation networks in a plausible megathrust earthquake scenar...
Canada’s West Coast is located near the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a region susceptible to high-magnitude earthquakes. The database describes the multi-modal transportation... -
Data from: Morphological and molecular evolution and their consequences for c...
We evaluated geographic variation and subspecific taxonomy in the Le Conte's Thrasher (Toxostoma lecontei) by analyzing DNA sequences from 16 nuclear loci, one mitochondrial DNA... -
Data from: Isotopic niches support the resource breadth hypothesis
Because a broad spectrum of resource use allows species to persist in a wide range of habitat types, and thus permits them to occupy large geographical areas, and because... -
Data from: Are species' range limits simply niche limits writ large? A review...
Many species’ range limits (RL) occur across continuous environmental gradients without obvious barriers imposing them. Such RL are expected to reflect niche limits (NL) and... -
Data from: Unscrambling variation in avian eggshell colour and patterning in ...
The evolutionary drivers underlying marked variation in the pigmentation of eggs within many avian species remains unclear. The leading hypotheses proposed to explain such... -
Data from: Taxon cycle predictions supported by model-based inference in Indo...
Non-equilibrium dynamics and non-neutral processes, such as trait-dependent dispersal, are often missing from quantitative island biogeography models despite their potential... -
Data from: Effects of the landscape on boreal toad gene flow: does the patter...
Understanding the impact of natural and anthropogenic landscape features on population connectivity is a major goal in evolutionary ecology and conservation. Discovery of...
