Macroevolutionary processes in turtles (Testudines): a view from biomic specialization and historical climatic changes by Juan S. Thomas, Sara Gamboa, Manuel Hernández Fernández, Manuel Hernández Fernández, Oscar Murillo, Jonathan S. Pelegrin

“…Vrba suggests that lineages display varying tendencies toward generalism or specialization in biome occupancy, with a tendency towards the accumulation of specialists due to their higher rate of speciation through vicariance. It also posits differences in biome occupancy patterns driven by the environmental characteristics of biomes, with a higher presence of biome specialist species in biomes that are placed in the extremes of the global climatic gradients. …”
