A phylogeny of open‐habitat lizards (Squamata: Lacertidae: Ophisops ) supports the antiquity of Indian grassy biomes
Abstract
Aim India is dominated by tropical grassy biomes (TGBs), traditionally considered seres or degraded forest, with low diversity relative to the restricted, ancestral wet zone. It is unclear if Indian grasslands and other open habitats are anthropogenically derived or native, old-growth habitats; without a clear timescale of grassland evolution. One way to understand grassland evolution is to study the diversification in taxa restricted to open...
