Compsoricus Franz, 2012 [3]
Decasticha Champion, 1911 [5]

Based on Franz (2012) Biol. J. Linn. Soc. (A
narrower definition is used here)
Species counts from O’brien & Wibmer (1982)
4. High endemism in Caribbean islands (e.g., 89% in Cuba) (Peck, 2005)
In Exophthalmus continental diversity is mainly concentrated
in Central America (including Southern Mexico) (~35 spp.);
low diversity in South America (8 spp.)

Species of Exophthalmus
genus complex are distributed
from Southern Mexico,
Caribbean to Northern South
America.

continent-island relationship?

6. Are Caribbean islands strictly a ‘colonization sink’, or
could they also be a source for continental diversity?

colonization road? Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 23(8), 461–468.

7. Are Caribbean islands strictly a ‘colonization sink’, or
could they also be a source for continental diversity?
Unidirectional colonization from continent to islands has
been the dominant model
Reverse colonization from Caribbean to Neotropical
mainland documented in Anolis, birds (bananaquits,
Myiarchus, parrots), turtles, and frogs (Eleutherodactylus)
8. Are Caribbean islands strictly a ‘colonization sink’, or
could they also be a source for continental diversity?

9. Are Caribbean islands strictly a ‘colonization sink’, or

What patterns would weevils show?

Title of slide should be ‘Taxonomic sampling’

This pattern that species from different islands could be more closely related than from the same island suggests a complex biogeographic history and possibly faunal exchanges among the islands.
