1939Bull. Misc. Information (R. Botanic Gardens, Kew) v. 229 Vicarious species are particularly instructive to study. These are species inhabiting contiguous but not (or scarcely) overlapping areas. Vicarism may be altitudinal or geographical. 1944S. A. Cain Found. Plant Geogr. xviii. 265 The concept of vicariism is equally applicable to other than the specific category, i.e., to subspecies, sections, etc., and to communities. 1953R. Good Geogr. Flowering Plants (ed. 2) xi. 212 Another particular kind of vicariism, which may be described as climatic, is illustrated..by the two littoral species Ipomoea pes-caprae and Calystegia soldanella. The former is almost or quite pan-tropical, but the latter is more or less pan-temperate and the two meet at the Kermadecs and elsewhere in similar latitudes. 1969M. D. F. Udvardy Dynamic Zoogeogr. iv. 192 The concept of vicarism is used widely..when comparing certain types of distributional areas. 1974Boissiera XXIII. 296 The distribution patterns of the different chromosome races agree with certain main types of false vicariism. |
