Panbiogeography
Biogeography is a diverse subject, traditionally focusing on the distribution of plants and animals at different taxonomic levels, past and present. Modern biogeography also puts emphasis on the ecological character of the world vegetation types, and on the evolving relationship between humans and their environment. Panbiogeography describes a new synthesis of sciences of plant and animal distribution. The book emphasizes that the geographical patterns of animal and plant distribution contribute directly to the understanding and interpretation of evolutionary history. Geographic location is reintroduced as a critical element of both biogeography and evolutionary biology. The authors present chapters exploring the roles of geology, ecology, evolution in panbiogeographic theory, and introduce new methods, modes of classification, and ways of measuring biodiversity.

A Professorial Life
John C. Jack Briggs was named professor emeritus upon his retirement from the University of South Florida. He is now affi liated with the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at Oregon State University. He and his wife Eila, a retired economics professor, spend their summers in Oregon and winters in Indio, California. Jacks research interest is primarily in evolutionary biology. His studies in early years were devoted to fi sh life history and systematics. Work on systematics led to an interest in the evolutionary implications of biogeographic patterns. Work on contemporary patterns of distribution and biodiversity led to the study of paleobiology and the historical development of such patte...
Molytini (Insecta: Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Molytinae)
Flightless molytine weevils are some of the largest beetles in New Zealand, and they are some of the world's largest members of the tribe Molytini. This study provides descriptions of the 12 known species and of eight new speargrass weevils.
