NET DIVERSIFICATION RATES OF THE WOODY PLANT GENUS PETALIDIUM (ACANTHACEAE) ARE HIGHEST IN THE ANCIENT AND ARID NAMIB DESERT

Net diversification rates of the woody plant genus Petalidium (Acanthaceae) are highest in the ancient and arid Namib Desert

At present, tropical berkley power worm 100 pack arid biomes house less woody plant species diversity than tropical moist biomes, which could be due to lower rates of evolutionary diversification in the recent or distant past.Here, we study the evolutionary diversification of Petalidium (Acanthaceae), a genus of 36 species of woody shrubs found in
