Biogeography is
the study of distribution of organisms both past and present. It is the science
which attempts to describe and understand the innumerable patterns in the
distribution of species and larger taxonomic groups.This notes holds the

This thesis provides a study about the Pacific lithospheric
plate that forms a major subunit of the Indo-Pacific biogeographic region.
This thesis is defended on two primary grounds: the sharp decrease in numbers of
taxa as one proceeds eastward across the western margin of the Pacific Plate,
and the presence of a high degree of endemism on the Plate.
