Evolution of the climatic niche in scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae, Polypodiopsida)

A reconstruction a climatic niche of scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae) using a rigorous analytical procedure which combines climatic niche modelling with reconstruction of continuous characters given a phylogenetic hypothesis. To estimate the limits to climatic niches of species, we used climate envelope modelling and ordination.
