The disjunction is almost identical to a sister species relationship in the plant genus &lt;em&gt;Acridocarpus &lt;/em&gt;(Malpighiaceae), similar to &lt;em&gt;Cunonia &lt;/em&gt;(Cunoniaceae) in New Caledonia and South Africa, and comparable to &lt;em&gt;Dietes &lt;/em&gt;(Iridaceae) on Lord Howe Island and Madagascar/East Africa. These and other geographic disjunctions represent scattered elements of the numerous trans-Indian Ocean connections involving more widespread taxa, some with distributions that include the Pacific. The biogeographic patterns are consistent with Mesozoic tectonic events that disrupted the continuity of widespread ancestral distributions. The tectonic correlations are not in conflict with younger fossil or island calibrated molecular divergence ages that represent minimum estimates only. And they provide a potential falsification of centres of origin and chance dispersal models generated by ancestral-areas programmes.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
