Old, climatically buffered, infertile landscapes (OCBILs) have a disjunct yet wide distribution worldwide. Old lineages, rare and geographically restricted species, generally characterise these landscapes. Although the last decade provided evidence supporting the OCBIL theory, many studies are biase...
