Multiple Source Pools and Dispersal Barriers for Galapagos Plant Species Distribution

We reexamined geographic factors explaining the number of plant species on islands in the Galapagos Archipelago. We hypothesized that plant species richness (S) was related to the number of source pools and that plant species dispersal preferentially followed direct, oceanic pathways. To test differ...
