Dispersal ability of island endemic plants: What can we learn using multiple dispersal traits?

Original language description

Island endemic species are expected to have lower dispersal ability than their non-endemic congeners. Several studies have demonstrated differences in diaspore morphology between endemic species and their non-endemic congeners. It is, however, relativelydifficult to translate the differences in morphology of the diaspores into differences in dispersal ability: To avoid this problem, we measured directly dispersal values (anemo-, hydro-, exozoo- and endozoo-chory) of 27 pairs of closely related endemicand non-endemic species from Canary Islands. We did not explicitly support the hypothesis about the loss of dispersal ability of island species. The comparison of pairs of endemic and non-endemic species showed the reduction in dispersal potential only for endozoochory. In many cases, endemic species had, in fact, the same or better dispersal ability than their non-endemic congeners. Higher dispersal ability of endemic species could have been evolved as a consequence of species subsequen
