Abstract Aim We documented patterns of phylogenetic diversity (PD) and endemism (PE) in the moss flora North America, determined how environmental variables explain these patterns, compared mosses to known angiosperms explored driven by sub‐clades might conflict with other sub‐clades. Location America north Mexico. Taxon Mosses (Bryophyta). Methods A maximum‐likelihood tree inferred from publicly available sequence data locality ca. 7.5 × 10 5 herbarium specimens were combined build a dataset 935 species (representing 67% flora). Spatial randomization procedures used find significance levels PD relative (RPD) for full three major sub‐clades, as well carry out categorical analysis Neo‐ Paleo‐endemism (CANAPE). Range weighted turnover both PE was identify phytogeographic regions across continent. Ordinations determine distribution PD, RPD, within space. Results this study phylodiversity angiosperms. Phylodiversity is distributed non‐randomly. Some example, long branches southeastern US, are consistent angiosperms; however, there strong contrasts well. Overall RPD strongly influenced different scales mosses, indicating that signal one clade can obscure others. Three primary zones defined differing geological histories current abiotic conditions. Phytogeographic regions, all aligned variables. Main conclusions There evidence ecological historical factors shaping biogeographic differences between appear align important life‐history two groups.

Abstract The geographic ranges of taxa change in response to environmental conditions. Yet whether rates range movement (biotic velocities) are phylogenetically conserved is not well known. Phylogenetic conservatism biotic velocities could reflect similarities among related lineages climatic tolerances and dispersal‐associated traits. We assess late Quaternary were they correlate with used phylogenetic regression nonparametric correlation evaluate associations between velocities, traits, for 28 woody plant genera subgenera North America. which shifted their core limits positively correlated from time step 16 7 ka. strength this weakened after ka as the pace climate slowed. Dispersal‐associated traits associated velocities. Although some consistently fast others slow, conserved. rapid shifts plants lacking that facilitate frequent long‐distance dispersal has long been noted (i.e., Reid's Paradox). Our results consistent paradox show it remains robust when information taken into account. lack association may several, nonmutually exclusive processes, including rare dispersal, interactions, cryptic refugia. Because decoupled trait data cannot be predict longer‐term (millennial‐scale) floristic responses change.
