The decrease in species richness towards higher latitudes is an expected biogeographical pattern. This pattern could be related to particular environmental constraints and the evolutionary history of clades. However, species richness does not fully represent the evolutionary history of clades behind their distributions. Phylogenetic diversity better clarifies the role of historical factors in biogeographical patterns. We analyzed environmental and historical drivers related to latitudinal variation in species richness and phylogenetic diversity of Atlantic Forest endemic snakes. We implemented Species Distribution Models (SDMs), from voucher-based locality points, to map the snake ranges and diversity. We used Generalized Additive Mixed Models (GAMMs) to evaluate the relationships among the diversity metrics and area, topographical roughness, and past climate change velocity since the Last Maximum Glacial in the Atlantic Forest latitudinal gradient. Contrary to the expected general pattern, species richness was higher towards higher latitudes, being positively related to past climatic stability. Species richness also increased with total area and higher topographical roughness. Phylogenetic diversity, on the other hand, showed opposite relationships related to the same factors. Phylogenetic diversity increased with lower climatic stability in lower latitudes. Thus, dimensions of diversity were affected in different ways by historical and environmental constraints in this unique and threatened biodiversity hotspot.

大西洋森林特有蛇的物种丰富度和系统发育多样性的相反纬度梯度

物种丰富度向高纬度地区下降是一种预期的生物地理模式。这种模式可能与特定的环境限制和进化枝的进化历史有关。然而,物种丰富度并不能完全代表其分布背后的进化历史。系统发育多样性更好地阐明了历史因素在生物地理模式中的作用。我们分析了与大西洋森林特有蛇的物种丰富度和系统发育多样性的纬度变化相关的环境和历史驱动因素。我们从基于凭证的地点点实施了物种分布模型 (SDM),以绘制蛇的范围和多样性。我们使用广义加性混合模型(GAMM)来评估多样性指标与面积、地形粗糙度、以及自大西洋森林纬度梯度末次盛冰期以来过去的气候变化速度。与预期的总体模式相反,高纬度地区的物种丰富度较高,与过去的气候稳定性呈正相关。物种丰富度也随着总面积和地形粗糙度的增加而增加。另一方面,系统发育多样性表现出与相同因素相关的相反关系。低纬度地区气候稳定性较低,系统发育多样性增加。因此,在这个独特且受到威胁的生物多样性热点地区,多样性的维度以不同的方式受到历史和环境限制的影响。纬度越高,物种丰富度越高,与过去的气候稳定性呈正相关。物种丰富度也随着总面积和地形粗糙度的增加而增加。另一方面,系统发育多样性表现出与相同因素相关的相反关系。低纬度地区气候稳定性较低,系统发育多样性增加。因此,在这个独特且受到威胁的生物多样性热点地区,多样性的维度以不同的方式受到历史和环境限制的影响。纬度越高,物种丰富度越高,与过去的气候稳定性呈正相关。物种丰富度也随着总面积和地形粗糙度的增加而增加。另一方面,系统发育多样性表现出与相同因素相关的相反关系。低纬度地区气候稳定性较低,系统发育多样性增加。因此,在这个独特且受到威胁的生物多样性热点地区,多样性的维度以不同的方式受到历史和环境限制的影响。低纬度地区气候稳定性较低,系统发育多样性增加。因此,在这个独特且受到威胁的生物多样性热点地区,多样性的维度以不同的方式受到历史和环境限制的影响。低纬度地区气候稳定性较低,系统发育多样性增加。因此,在这个独特且受到威胁的生物多样性热点地区,多样性的维度以不同的方式受到历史和环境限制的影响。
