Biotectonics of Neotropical Transition Zones [electronic resource] / by Lize Hermógenes de Mendonça, Bernard Michaux, Malte C. Ebach. - 1st ed. 2024. - X, 75 p. 14 illus., 9 illus. in color. online resource. - SpringerBriefs in Evolutionary Biology, 2192-8142 . - SpringerBriefs in Evolutionary Biology, .
A History of Transition Zones in Biogeographical Classification -- Impact Tectonics and Transition Zones: The Caribbean -- The South American Transition Zone -- Synthesis.
This book offers an up-to-date review and synthesis of the role of tectonics in Neotropical bioregionalisation, in particular transition zones. The main questions are "What are transition zones?", "How would we identify them?" and, "What are the tectonic drivers of transition zones?" These questions are pertinent as they may reveal a new transition zone within the Caribbean (Antillean sub-region), and provides an up-to-date account of the biotectonics of the Caribbean. In addition, the book contains a detailed tectonic summary of the development of the Andes and the bioregionalisation of the South American Transition Zone.
