FIGURE 1. (A) Single most parsimonious tree of 165315 steps (CI = 0.7561, RI = 0.4323) resulted the Parsimony Analysis of Endemicity (reviewed in Morrone (2009)) based on 12 artificial geographical areas/124,993 species from the Checklist of the New World vascular plants (Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2017). The bootstrap values (1000 replicates) showed above branches. Analysis conducted in PAUP * version 4.0a (Swofford, 2002). (B) Political map of the New World showing 12 geographical areas used in the 124,993 species New World Checklist of vascular plants (Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2017). Modified from Ulloa Ulloa et al. (2017). (C) Alfred Russell Wallace's Neotropical region and its sub-regions (Wallace, 1876; Morrone, 2014). Modified from Morrone (2014).
