Abstract

My biogeographic ideas have been acquiring a more consolidated expression and meaning. They are not free, more than fifty years of doing biogeography. The central axis is a moving earth surface, on which not only the surface, but also the organisms that inhabit it, move. The earth is constant motion, but that motion is not random. Determinate influences, which establish what happens and what does not happen. At the same time, it happens with plants and animals; change, evolution is not a random process. For us everything revolves around a distribution problem, since this is what we are essentially interested in.
