The roles of dispersal limitation, climatic niches and glacial history in endemism of the North American bryophyte flora.
Benjamin E CarterPublished in: American journal of botany (2021)
Distributions of endemics and nonendemics are consistent with an important role of glaciation in shaping the North American bryophyte flora. Endemics are not limited to the continent based on a lack of suitable climate elsewhere or by spore size or sexual condition.
