Tropics have the highest diversity of species but we don’t know why. One theory is that they are a ‘cradle of #evolution’ capable of generating new species v quickly. But new study in 🐟 shows opposite pattern w faster speciation rates at colder latitudes!

Marine fish breaking the mold: they were expected to diversify faster in the tropics, but this study proves the contrary; speciation rates are faster at higher latitudes. But don't worry tropics, you still hold the greater diversity. #lovethetropics https:

Worth a read: Inverse latitudinal gradient in speciation rate for marine fish by @dan_rabosky et al. in #nature. The geologically recent emergence of sea ice and strong environmental variability at the poles might contribute to speedy evolution. https
