“…Given the narrow geographic range of many Malagasy species (e.g., (14)), numerous undetected anthropogenic extinctions are likely to have taken place (15), such as CR Aloe species, which may have become extinct in the wild since they were last recorded. This may be especially pronounced in groups with high levels of micro-endemism, for example freshwater fishes and amphibians (16).…”

“…), a pattern found in other rainforest frogs in Madagascar (e.g., Aglyptodactylus; Köhler et al 2015). Other species such as G. oelkrugi and G. portonae have more restricted ranges, conforming to an overall high rate of microendemism in Madagascar (e.g., Köhler et al 2010;Brown et al 2016;Rakotoarison et al 2017).…”

“…This process fostered genetic divergence among isolated populations, eventually leading to genetic divergence and allopatric speciation. Those published studies consistent with this hypothesis include the following: (1) the genetic structure of widespread, endemic bat species Macronycteris commersoni (Rakotoarivelo et al, 2019); (2) several studies of cryptic variation in several mouse lemur species populations (Poelstra et al, 2021; Tiley et al, 2022; Sgarlata et al, 2018, and of course Yoder et al, 2016); (3) micro‐endemism in 26 new species of microhylid frogs (Rakotoarison et al, 2017); (4) bird species in the genus Newtonia (Family Vangidae) (Younger et al, 2018); (5) tenrec species (Everson et al, 2020); (6) Salmona et al (2017) on two species of lemurs; (7) dwarf lemurs (Williams et al, 2020); (8) noctuid moths in the Central Highlands (Wiorek et al, 2021); (9) Quéméré et al (2012 on the golden‐crowned sifaka in northern Madagascar; and (10) Salmona et al (2021) on the diversification of some 60 forest and savanna species of Noronhia across Madagascar. It is noteworthy that mosaiced landscapes may not only have promoted evolution of various faunal clades but also may promote higher landscape biodiversity today (cf.…”
