While the causal factors behind high species endemism have been well worked out with respect to habitat characteristics and climate, the evolutionary mechanisms have received little attention. In this study, we attempt to decipher the evolutionary patterns of diversification of endemic plants in Nepal (Central Himalaya) and Bhutan (Eastern Himalaya) using species-presence records, phylogenetic supertrees, and ancestral area reconstruction methods. We found that the Nepal Himalaya was richer than Bhutan Himalaya with respect to endemic plant species. Maximum diversification of endemic plants in Nepal Himalaya occurred 35-20 million years ago (Mya), and in Bhutan Himalaya, it occurred during 55-45 Mya. Ancestral area reconstructions revealed that the maximum number of endemics in both Nepal and Bhutan Himalaya have diversified from taxa that migrated from Southeast Asiatic Malaysian and Southeast Chinese regions. We conclude that the plant species endemism in the Himalaya is closely linked with the phase-wise gradual uplift of mountains, long-term climate variation, species migration and floristic composition of the neighboring landscapes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":"18 1","pages":"Pages 162-167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143453578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In total, we collected 2692 individuals of 130 species and 72 genera of beetles, mainly Carabidae, Staphylinidae, Silphidae, and Leidodidae, with <em>Pterostichus eximius</em> occurring in 60% of all plots. Forest fires had a significant effect on diversity and community structure of Coleoptera at the local level. However, in all data, the effects of site and forest type outweighed the influence of fire. An RDA explained 32% of the variation in community patterns with the effects of fire and environmental parameters. RDA1 scores differed significantly by fire regime, suggesting different species composition of post-fire communities. <em>Hylobius abietis</em>, <em>Byrrhus pilula</em> and <em>Leiodes</em> sp2 were identified as indicator species for fire plots.

However, their molecular classification and identification remain challenging owing to a lack of molecular data in GenBank. This study aimed to establish a molecular method for identifying Anoplura spp. Goat lice were captured in Yulin, China, and morphologically identified as <em>Linognathus africanus</em> (<em>L. africanus</em>). Sequences from across Anoplura were downloaded from GenBank and conserved motif analysis showed that ribosomal DNA (rDNA) 18S V4, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) 12S, and 16S were candidate gene fragments suitable for universal primer design because of abundant sequences and long conserved motifs with few mutations. These three gene fragments of the lice specimens were successfully amplified and sequenced, and their divergences were 0.1–1.7%, 0–0.6%, and 0.3–1.3%, respectively, indicating that the lice specimens belonged to the same species. BLAST analysis showed that the 18S sequences were only aligned with <em>Linognathus</em>, while the 12S and 16S sequences showed 98.8–99.4% and 98.7–99.3% similarities, respectively, with those of <em>L. africanus</em> from Pakistan. Therefore, the lice specimens were molecularly identified as <em>L. africanus</em> without geographical isolation. In conclusion, the goat lice specimens were identified to <em>L. africanus</em>. 12S and 16S are potential DNA barcodes of Anoplura spp.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":"18 2","pages":"Pages 380-387"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144139515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
