QUÉ SIGNIFICA WALLACE'S LINE EN INGLÉS
Wallace Line
La Línea Wallace es una línea fronteriza faunística dibujada en 1859 por el naturalista británico Alfred Russel Wallace que separa las ecozonas de Asia y Wallacea, una zona de transición entre Asia y Australia. Al oeste de la línea se encuentran organismos relacionados con las especies asiáticas; Al este, una mezcla de especies de origen asiático y australiano está presente. La línea se nombra después de Alfred Russel Wallace, que notó esta división clara durante sus viajes a través de las Indias del este en el diecinueveavo siglo. La línea atraviesa Indonesia, entre Borneo y Sulawesi, ya través del estrecho de Lombok entre Bali y Lombok. La distancia entre Bali y Lombok es pequeña, a unos 35 kilómetros. Las distribuciones de muchas especies de aves observan la línea, ya que muchas aves no cruzan ni siquiera los tramos más pequeños de aguas oceánicas abiertas. Algunos murciélagos tienen distribuciones que cruzan la línea, pero otros mamíferos generalmente se limitan a un lado u otro; Una excepción es el macaco de comer cangrejos. Otros grupos de plantas y animales muestran patrones diferentes, pero el patrón general es sorprendente y razonablemente consistente. Flora no sigue la línea de Wallace en la misma medida que la fauna.
definición de Wallace's line en el diccionario inglés
La definición de la línea de Wallace en el diccionario es el límite hipotético entre las regiones zoogeográficas orientales y australasianas, que se extiende entre las islas indonesias de Bali y Lombok, a través del estrecho de Macassar y el SE de Filipinas.
