Abstract

On the Cover: Centre: The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is one of many African mammals whose geographic range may be limited by the variation in habitat types across space; photograph by Michael S. Lauer; pp. 846–857. Top right: Euphorbia canariensis is one of the most iconic endemic spermatophytes in the Canaries; it is a succulent shrub living mainly in Gran Canaria and Tenerife between 50 and 1100 m above sea level; photograph by Lea Mouton; pp. 858–869. Top left: A patch of forest with 3–5 m tall Schima brevifolia Baill. ex Stapf. trees (tea family) at 3740 m elevation on Mount Kinabalu in Borneo; bare rock around this forest patch prevents these trees from reaching the climatic treeline at 3820 m elevation; photograph by C. Körner; pp. 838–845. Bottom left: Wild boar Sus scrofa at Russian Far East. Wild boar population depends on both climate change and human activities; while wild boar itself is a common species, its abundance matters, for example, as prey source for endangered Amur tiger; photograph by Jonathan Slaght/Wildlife Conservation Society; pp. 932–946. Bottom right: This circular logo graced the cover of the first issue (March 1974) and initial 14 volumes of the Journal of Biogeography; the golden text celebrates the journal’s five decades and 50th anniversary.
