Elevation gradients of species‐density: historical and prospective views
- Mark V. Lomolino
- Geography
- 2001
Studies of elevation clines in diversity and composition of ecological communities date back to the origins of biogeography. A modern resurgence of interests in these elevational clines is likely to… Expand
Body Size of Mammals on Islands: The Island Rule Reexamined

On commente le tableau de frequence du nanisme et du gigantisme pour 365 populations insulaires de mammiferes terrestres; comparaison avec les mammiferes continentaux. Presentation d'un modele. Role… Expand
Ecology’s most general, yet protean 1 pattern: the species-area relationship
- Mark V. Lomolino

Investigating causality of nestedness of insular communities: selective immigrations or extinctions?
- Mark V. Lomolino
- Geography
- 1 September 1996
. Most archipelagos are comprised of a nested set of communities, with species on depauperate islands representing proper subsets of those on richer islands. The causality for this common… Expand
Dynamic biogeography and conservation of endangered species
- Rob Channell, Mark V. Lomolino
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 6 January 2000
As one moves from the core to the periphery of a species' geographical range, populations occupy less favourable habitats and exhibit lower and more variable densities. Populations along the… Expand
A call for a new paradigm of island biogeography
- Mark V. Lomolino
- Biology
- 2000
MacArthur and Wilson's equilibrium theory of island biogeography quickly became the paradigm of the field in the 1960s and has strongly influenced this and other disciplines of ecology and… Expand
A species‐based theory of insular zoogeography
- Mark V. Lomolino
- Biology
- 2000
1
I present an alternative to the equilibrium theory of island biogeography, one which is based on the premise that many of the more general patterns in insular community structure result from, not… Expand
The species-area relationship: new challenges for an old pattern
- Mark V. Lomolino
- Biology
- 1 March 2001
The species-area relationship (i.e., the relationship between area and the number of species found in that area) is one of longest and most frequently studied patterns in nature. Yet there remain… Expand
Of mice and mammoths: evaluations of causal explanations for body size evolution in insular mammals
- Mark V. Lomolino, D. Sax, M. Palombo, A. V. D. Geer
- Biology
- 1 May 2012
Aim We investigated the hypothesis that the insular body size of mammals results from selective forces whose influence varies with characteristics of the focal islands and the focal species, and with… Expand
Island Biogeograhy of Montane Forest Mammals in the American Southwest
- Mark V. Lomolino, J. H. Brown, R. Davis
- Geography
- 1 February 1989
Information from packrat (Neotoma spp.) middens and other paleoenviron- mental indicators was used to reconstruct Pleistocene distributions of macrohabitats in the American Southwest (Arizona, New… Expand
