The PHYLONICHE project investigates the reasons behind the higher species richness in tropical regions, focusing on amphibians. It explores how evolutionary traits influence species distribution and extinction risk, aiming to enhance understanding of biodiversity patterns and the global amphibian decline.
Explaining the causal mechanisms underlying the latitudinal gradient in species richness has long been a core objective for ecologists and biogeographers.
The phylogenetic niche conservatism hypothesis (PNCH) is receiving increasing attention as a synthetic theory able to account not only for the high tropical richness of most taxa, but also for the exceptions to this pattern found in some groups.
However, only a few studies have tested this hypothesis and, hence, the empirical support for PNCH…
