The extreme disjunction between Beringia and Europe in Ranunculus glacialis s. l. ( Ranunculaceae) does not coincide with the deepest genetic split – a story of the importance of temperate mountain ranges in arctic–alpine phylogeography
Abstract The arctic–alpine R anunculus glacialis s. l. is distributed in high‐mountain ranges of temperate Europe and in the North, where it displays an extreme disjunction between the N orth A tlantic A rctic and B eringia. Based on comprehensive sampling and employing plastid and nuclear marker sy...

Abstract The arctic–alpine R anunculus glacialis s. l. is distributed in high‐mountain ranges of temperate Europe and in the North, where it displays an extreme disjunction between the N orth A tlantic A rctic and B eringia.

Both data sets revealed several well‐defined lineages, mostly with a coherent geographic distribution. The deepest evolutionary split did not coincide with the E uropean/ B eringian disjunction but occurred within the A lps. The B eringian lineage and N orth A tlantic A rctic populations, which reached their current distribution via rapid postglacial colonization, show connections to two divergent pools of C entral E uropean populations.
