摘要:
Vicariance and dispersion both must be considered as possibilities for the fauna and flora of New Zealand and New Caledonia. Oligocene submersion, promoted by the geologists and several biologists, does not seem to have been total. Refuge stations must have existed in mountains and even in plains in some surrounding areas. From there the relicts must have radiated after the partial submersion. Certain "primitive" Chrysomelidae Eumolpinae (Bohumiljania spp.) are closely related to Patagonian genera. Their case is not unique among the terrestrial organisms of New Caledonia. How to explain the occurrence of Amborella in New Caledonia and of the tuataras in New Zealand, already very probably extinct elsewhere during the Paleogene?
