The imprint of Cenozoic migrations and evolutionary history on the biogeographic gradient of body size in New World mammals.
Ecology, evolution, and historical events all contribute to biogeographic patterns, but studies that integrate them are scarce. Here we focus on how biotic exchanges of mammals during the Late Cenozoic have contributed to current geographic body size patterns. We explore differences in the environmental correlates and phylogenetic patterning of body size between groups of mammals participating ...
متن کاملPhylogeographic Migrations of Phaseolus Beüm in the New World, and Consequences for Taxonomy, Conservation and Breeding
Botanically beans belong to the legume tribe Phaseoleae within the Papilionoideae-Leguminosae (Freytag & Debouck 2002). Bean species are all from the Americas, and their presence in other parts of the world is due to historic movements by humans after 1492.

Being aware of socio-cultural frameworks does not mean that as an outcome of instruction learners have to become "native-like," but an awareness of L2 cultural norms can allow learners to make their own informed choices of how to become competent and astute l...
متن کاملLateral Enamel Formation and Life History in New World Monkeys
The field of anthropology has seen a continuous interest in the human life history evolution. Since the modern human life history pattern is unique when compared to the rest of the primates, the question of when and why the modern human life history arose has become a frequent topic of research. The relationship between dental development and life history profiles within extant and fossil prima...
متن کاملSinodonty, Sundadonty, and the Beringian Standstill model: Issues of timing and migrations into the New World
C.G. Turner II made dental morphological observations on thousands of Eskimo-Aleuts and American Indians and concluded they were derived from ancestral populations in northeast Asia during the last stages of the Pleistocene. He further distinguished two dental patterns in Asia. In East Asia, populations exhibit Sinodonty, a specialized dentition with intensified trait expressions. Southeast Asi...
