Competition and geography underlie speciation and morphological evolution in Indo-Australasian monitor lizards

Carlos J. Pavon-Vazquez et al.

Summary: The study utilized large datasets and new methodological approaches to evaluate the impact of biotic and abiotic factors on the diversification of monitor lizards. The results revealed multiple instances of endemic radiation in the Indo-Australasia region, with incumbency effects partially explaining patterns in biotic exchange between Australia and New Guinea.

Mountain radiations are not only rapid and recent: Ancient diversification of South American frog and lizard families related to Paleogene Andean orogeny and Cenozoic climate variations

Lydian M. Boschman et al.

Summary: The study explores the impact of climate-driven and geology-driven factors on the evolutionary rates of ancient organisms in the South American Andes. Different clades diversified at different times due to mountain building, with some showing correlation with temperature variations and others with elevation changes. This underscores the importance of understanding the complexity of mountain building in shaping biodiversity patterns.

Adapting to extremes: Reconstructing evolution in response to changing climate over time and space in the diverse Australian plant genus Acacia

Xia Hua et al.

Summary: This study applied a macroevolutionary method to investigate the responses of Acacia plants in Australia to increasing aridity and salinity. The results suggest that Acacia has the ability to adapt to high aridity and salinity through the evolution of environmental tolerance, leading to their dominance in many habitats across Australia.

Fast and Accurate Estimation of Species-Specific Diversification Rates Using Data Augmentation

Odile Maliet et al.

Summary: Diversification rates vary across species due to environmental conditions and species-specific features. A new inference technique is presented here that reduces computation time by using data augmentation, allowing for the estimation of posterior distribution of tree with extinct and unsampled lineages as well as associated diversification rates. Simulation results demonstrate the statistical performance of this approach, which is applied to the study of bird radiation.

Evolutionary models demonstrate rapid and adaptive diversification of Australo-Papuan pythons

Damien Esquerre et al.

Summary: This study presents an updated time-calibrated phylogenomic hypothesis to investigate the diversification of pythons in the Australo-Papuan region. The results show that pythons experienced sudden speciation rates and accelerated phenotypic evolution following their invasion of this region, providing evidence for adaptive radiation theory. This study highlights the importance of studying diverse adaptive diversification systems in understanding biodiversity generation.

Phylogenomics of Monitor Lizards and the Role of Competition in Dictating Body Size Disparity

Ian G. Brennan et al.

Summary: The study investigates the influence of biotic interactions on trait evolution and community assembly in monitor lizards (Varanus). The results suggest that Australian Varanus communities exhibit high functional diversity as a result of interspecific competition among monitors on a continental scale, rather than with faunivorous marsupials. The patterns of trait evolution resulting from character displacement on continental scales are recoverable from comparative data, highlighting macroevolutionary patterns that may develop in parallel across widely distributed sympatric groups.

Life in the dead heart of Australia: The geohistory of the Australian deserts and its impact on genetic diversity of arid zone lizards

Mitzy Pepper et al.

Summary: The paper reviews the geological development and contemporary landscapes of Australia's arid zone, proposing eight biogeographical hypotheses that explore the interaction of geomorphology, evolutionary history, and ecological factors in shaping diversification patterns in the desert lowlands. Results indicate that geomorphological processes have a fundamental influence on the genetic structure of Australian desert taxa.

Earth history events shaped the evolution of uneven biodiversity across tropical moist forests

Oskar Hagen et al.

Summary: This study reveals that the biodiversity disparity in tropical moist forests is influenced by both contemporary climate and paleoenvironmental history, affecting species richness in different regions. High diversity is mainly driven by complex macroevolutionary dynamics such as mountain uplift, while lower diversity is associated with lower speciation rates and higher extinction rates.

A Comprehensive Approach to Detect Hybridization Sheds Light on the Evolution of Earth's Largest Lizards

Carlos J. Pavon-Vazquez et al.

Summary: The study revealed evidence of ancient hybridization between the Komodo dragon and sand monitors, with sand monitor species sharing more nuclear alleles with the Komodo dragon than expected, displaying phenotypes intermediate between their closest relatives and the Komodo dragon. Biogeographic analysis indicated co-occurrence of the Komodo dragon and ancestral sand monitors in northern Australia.

Climatic effects on niche evolution in a passerine bird clade depend on paleoclimate reconstruction method

Alison Eyres et al.

Summary: The relationship between rates of climatic niche evolution and paleoclimatic conditions for Old-World flycatcher species is not clear, suggesting that paleoclimatic change may have a weak influence on the evolution of climatic niches in birds.

Why extinction estimates from extant phylogenies are so often zero

Stilianos Louca et al.

Summary: Time-calibrated phylogenies of extant species are commonly used in estimating historical speciation and extinction rates, but controversy exists due to zero inflation in extinction estimates. A novel explanation is provided based on the discovery of alternative congruent diversification scenarios, which may result in estimators converging to scenarios with negative extinction rates. This mechanism explains the zero inflation of extinction rate estimates without detectable model violations, potentially resolving a long-standing mystery in phylogenetics.
