It addresses the processes that generate spatial patterns of diversity and biogeography in organisms that can potentially be cosmopolitan. The contributors discuss questions such as: are microorganisms (e.g. prokaryotes, protists, algae, yeast and microscopic fungi, plants and animals) really cosmopolitan in their distribution? What are the biological properties that allow such potential distribution? Are there processes that would limit their distribution? Are microorganisms intrinsically different from macroscopic ones? What can microorganisms tell us about the generalities of biogeography? Can they be used for experimental biogeography? Written for graduate students and academic researchers, the book promotes a more complete understanding of the spatial patterns and the general processes in biogeography. 410 0$aSystematics Association special volume. 606 $aMicroorganisms$xGeographical distribution 615 0$aMicroorganisms$xGeographical distribution. 676 $a579/.17 702 $aFontaneto$b Diego 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461756603321 996 $aBiogeography of microscopic organisms$92448971 997 $aUNINA
