- ORIGINS OF MEXICAN MALPIGHIACEAE William R. Anderson Biología Mexico phylogeny Biogeography Malpighiaceae The approximately 42 lineages of Malpighiaceae currently known in Mexico are identified and briefly described and discussed. All the Mexican lineages have their ultimate roots in South America, although in some cases the connections are inferred only through phylogeny and several Mexican genera probably originated in Mexico. All the lineages have effective adaptations for dispersal except the genus Galphimia, but distributions outside Mexico and a phylogenetic tree suggest that while many Malpighiaceae reached Mexico through “stepping-stone” dispersal, some lineages probably arrived as the result of episodes of long-distance dispersal from South America. 2013 artículo científico 0187-7151 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57427415007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=574 Acta Botanica Mexicana application/pdf Instituto de Ecología, A.C.
