  1. Biogeography and Lines: The Malay Archipelago and Wallace’s Line

  2. South America and Africa, separated by Atlantic, do not differ so widely as Asia and Australia....... (Wallace, 1860)

  3. Biogeography and Boundary:Biogeographical region – Cox, 2001 floral faunal traditional revised

  4. Kreft & Jetz, 2008

  5. The Malay Archipelago

  6. Too many lines.... – Simpson, 1977

  7. Cenozoic reconstruction, Lohman et al., 2011

  14. Will Wallace’s Line save Australia from avian influenza?McCallum et al., 2008

  15. For discussion... • Lourie & Vincent,2004 – Phylogeography of the sea-horse in Southeast-Asia, testing Indian/Pacific Ocean Basin vs. Wallace’s Line biogeographical hypotheses

  16. For discussion... • Schulte et al., 2002 – Molecular phylogenetic evidence for ancient divergence of lizard taxa on either side of Wallace’s Line

  17. For discussion... • Van Welzen et al., 2011 – Wallace’s Line and plant distribution: two or three phytogeographical areas and where to group Java?  floristic approach using statistical methods to infer biogeographical boundaries in Malesia.
