Geographic location and phylogeny are the main determinants of the size of the geographical range in aquatic beetles
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Why some species are widespread while others are very restricted geographically is one of the most basic questions in biology, although it remains largely unanswered. This is particularly the case for groups of closely related specie...
