Relict Species Phylogeography and Conservation Biology

Relict Species Phylogeography and Conservation Biology / edited by Jan Christian Habel, Thorsten Assmann.

This book provides an overview of the importance of research on relict species and presents conclusions and findings on the conservation of these species. There are relict species and populations from nearly all plant and animal groups and they contribute substantially to biodiversity across the glo...
