RT info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject T1 Evolutionary history of the flora from Western Mediterranean continental islands: phylogeography of the palaeoendemic species Arenaria balearica (Caryophyllaceae) A1 Peñas, Julio A1 Bobo Pinilla, Javier A1 Barrios, Sara A1 Seguí, Jaume A1 Fenu, Giuseppe A1 Bacchetta, Gianluigi A1 Martínez-Ortega, M. Montserrat AB Within the Mediterranean global biodiversity hotspot, theTyrrhenian Islands support a high percentage of endemic taxa (c. 10–20%; Cañadas etal. 2014). Some endemic plant species shared among Corsica, Sardinia, and the BalearicIslands have been designated ‘Hercynian endemics’ (Mansion et al. 2008), and have beenfrequently considered palaeoendemics. Although it has been traditionally accepted thatArenaria balearica L. (Caryophyllaceae) could be a Tertiary relict plant species, this has neverbeen tested by phylogeographic data. Our aim is investigate the palaeohistorical reasonsunderlying the highly disjunct distribution of the species in the Western Mediterraneanregion.
