Neovolcanic Plateau of Mexico.
Salansky, K.: 2009, Geophysical indication of unknown
neovolcanic centre near Marianske Lazne.
The principal incidence of wildfires (red points) in forest (Figure 3(a)) occurs on the western side of Mexico, along the Western Sierra Madre, Southern Sierra Madre, Trans-Mexican
Neovolcanic Belt, and Sierra Madre of Chiapas.
Mammals and protected areas in the Trans-Mexican
Neovolcanic Belt, pp 199-226.
These sites form part of the province of the
neovolcanic belt, which is formed by the subprovince of the plains and mountains of Queretaro and Hidalgo and the subprovince of the Anahuac lakes and volcanoes.
Historical biogeography of lowland species of toads (Bufo) across the Trans-Mexican
Neovolcanic Belt and the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.
Osgoodomys banderanus (Osgood's deermouse) is a nocturnal, solitary, medium-sized cricetid that is endemic to western Mexico, in particular the western portion of the Trans-Mexican
Neovolcanic Belt (Fa and Morales, 1991).
The station is in the Zoquiapan National Park, at the
Neovolcanic Belt of Central Mexico, 3000-3500masl (Franco and Burquez, 1981).
The volcanic and tectonic activity is mostly confined to the
neovolcanic zone that crosses the island from southwest to northeast and is the continuation of the ridge on land (Saemundsson 1979).
Geographically, 70% of this group was found to the east of 100o W latitude and was concentrated at the eastern extreme of the
neovolcanic axis in the states of Puebla, Hidalgo, and Veracruz, and extending down into Oaxaca (Fig.
Both molecular clock calibrations (based on Nei's D) and geological-age estimates of the Mexican
Neovolcanic Axis are consistent with an initial divergence of no more than 10 million years for the Mexican taxa, and many species are apparently much more recently derived (Shaffer 1984a).
