“…2B): three in the Transmexican Volcanic Belt, one in the southern Sierra Madre Oriental, one in the eastern Sierra Madre del Sur, one in the highlands of Chiapas, and three in the boundaries between two provinces. They concluded that taxa isolated in the highlands of Chiapas (as well as Guatemala) at the end of the Pleistocene may represent the southernmost Nearctic relicts in Mesoamerica, and that the other biogeographic provinces, together with the Sierra Several other studies have contributed to the recognition of similar generalized tracks and nodes, and to the identification of smaller generalized tracks (Luna-Vega et al 1999, 2000, 2001, Morrone et al 1999, Morrone and Escalante 2002, Escalante et al 2003, Márquez and Morrone 2003, Ochoa et al 2003, Morrone and Gutiérrez 2005, Espinosa et al 2006, Contreras-Medina et al 2007a, Mariño-Pérez et al 2007, Toledo et al 2007, García-Marmolejo et al 2008). …”

Transition zones, located at the boundaries between biogeographic regions, represent events of biotic hybridization, promoted by historical and ecological changes. They deserve special attention, because they represent areas of intense biotic interaction. In its more general sense, the Mexican Transition Zone is a complex and varied area where Neotropical and Nearctic biotas overlap, from southwestern USA to Mexico and part of Central America, extending south to the Nicaraguan lowlands. In recent years, panbiogeographic analyses have led to restriction of the Mexican Transition Zone to the montane areas of Mexico and to recognize five smaller biotic components within it. A cladistic biogeographic analysis challenged the hypothesis that this transition zone is biogeographically divided along a north‐south axis at the Transmexican Volcanic Belt, as the two major clades found divided Mexico in an east‐west axis. This implies that early Tertiary geological events leading to the convergence of Neotropical and Nearctic elements may be younger (Miocene) than those that led to the east‐west pattern (Paleocene). The Mexican Transition Zone consists of five biogeographic provinces: Sierra Madre Occidental, Sierra Madre Oriental, Transmexican Volcanic Belt, Sierra Madre del Sur, and Chiapas. Within this transition zone, at least four cenocrons have been identified: Paleoamerican, Nearctic, Montane Mesoamerican, and Tropical Mesoamerican. Future studies should continue refining the identification of cenocrons and the reconstruction of a geobiotic scenario, as well as integrating ecological biogeographic studies, to allow a more complete understanding of the patterns and processes that have caused the biotic complexity of this transition zone.

Distributional patterns of 81 species of three genera of Mexican gymnosperms (Ceratozamia, Dioon, Pinus) were analyzed to evaluate their contribution to the cladistic biogeography of the Mexican Transition Zone, applying Brooks Parsimony Analysis (BPA) and parsimony analysis of paralogy‐free subtrees (PAPS). BPA showed three main groups of areas: clade A is comprised of the Baja California, Great Basin, and Mojavean provinces; clade B includes the Valle de Tehuacán‐Cuicatlán, Balsas Basin, Planicie Costera del Noreste, Planicie Costera del Noroeste, Costa del Golfo de México, and Costa Pacífica provinces, located along the coasts and in the central lowlands of Mexico; and clade C includes the Appalachian, Atlantic and Gulf Coastal, Yucatán Peninsula, Caribbean, Californian, Vancouverian, Eastern Central America, Soconusco, Serranías Transístmicas, Serranías Meridionales, Sierra Madre Occidental, Altiplano, and Sierra Madre Oriental provinces, corresponding to the montane areas of the Mexican Transition Zone, Central America and some areas of the U.S.A. PAPS showed three groups of areas: clade D includes the Vancouverian, Appalachian, and Atlantic and Gulf Coastal provinces; clade E the Balsas Basin, Planicie Costera del Noreste, and Planicie Costera del Noroeste provinces; and clade F the Serranías Transístmicas, Soconusco, Serranías Meridionales, Sierra Madre Occidental, Altiplano, Sierra Madre Oriental, Baja California, Californian, Great Basin and Mojavean provinces. Comparing both analyses, three common area relationships emerge: (1) Appalachian and Atlantic and Gulf Coastal provinces, (2) Great Basin, Mojavean and Baja California provinces, and (3) Altiplano, Sierra Madre Oriental and Sierra Madre Occidental provinces. Differences between the general area cladograms can be accounted for by dispersal having a stronger influence in BPA, and the PAPS general area cladogram showing a clearer vicariant signal. The general area cladograms obtained support some area relationships not explained in previous studies, and may complement the historical distributional patterns of the biota of the Mexican Transition Zone.
