Cryptic species diversity reveals biogeographic support for the ‘mountain passes are higher in the tropics’ hypothesis

The ‘mountain passes are higher in the tropics’ (MPHT) hypothesis posits that reduced climate variability at low latitudes should select for narrower thermal tolerances, lower dispersal and smaller elevational ranges compared with higher latitudes. These latitudinal differences could increase specie...
