Thus, allopatric speciation may be a particularly important pathway for the origin of edaphically restricted
paleoendemic species (Table 1).

paleoendemic rodent.
mexicana as the dominant element are considered a relict and
paleoendemic vegetation established in areas that presumably served as Pleistocene refuges of flora and fauna in Mexico (Rzedowski 1991).
The temperate rainforests contain many
paleoendemic species.

Museomics illuminate the history of an extinct,
paleoendemic plant lineage (Hesperelaea, Olcaceae) known from an 1875 collection from Guadalupe Island, Mexico.
A
paleoendemic is an ancient relict with no apparent closely related extant taxon (Table X; Keener, 1983).
Thus, the high mountain has been a refuge for ancient secluded taxa (
paleoendemics), an arena for rising speciation (neoendemics), and a relatively good space for internal migration and homogenisation of the Pyrenean high mountain flora.
In some places the presence of
paleoendemics is notorious (Soto et al., 1990; Porembski et al., 1994; Fleischmann et al., 1996).
Some of the species can be regarded as probable remnants of ancient Mediterranean mountain fauna (
paleoendemics), and others came from the northern parts of Europe during the glacials and evolved under isolation on mountains during the interglacials (neoendemics).
The speciation due to isolation gives rise to nioendics which superimpose themselves on these
paleoendemics or relics of previously more extensive faunas, giving rise to a series of faunistic groupings which are basic to our understanding the history of the changes in the outside environment.
paleoendemics that represent a flora widespread during the Tertiary.
