The latitudinal richness gradient is a frequent topic of study on the modern landscape,but its history in deep time is much less well ***,we preliminarily evaluated the paleolatitudinal richness gradient of vascular plants for the Eocene(56-33.9 million years ago) and Oligocene(33.9-23 million years ago) epochs of North America north of IVlexico using 201 fossil *** calculated the direction and shape of the gradient using quadratic regression to detect linear and curvilinear *** performed regressions for the Eocene and Oligocene as well as for informal time intervals within the Eocene:early,middle,and middle + *** found that quadratic models better explain the data than linear models for both epochs as well as for the early Eocene.A roughly linear trend in the middle and middle + late intervals may reflect limited sampling of high latitude floras for those *** curvilinear relationship was weak for the Eocene and the model showed a peak in richness at 45.5°*** curvilinear relationship was much stronger for the Oligocene and the peak occurred at 48.5°*** the Eocene,the mid-latitude peak in richness may be explained by mean annual temperature,which was probably higher at some mid-latitudes than at lower *** the Oligocene,the peak in richness at midlatitudes may be explained by evolutionary diversification within the temperate zone or by increased aridity at low *** also assessed the latitudinal richness gradient of genera within modern floras in North America north of Mexico and we found a weak,curvilinear trend with a peak in richness at 31.5°*** results suggest that the latitudinal genus richness gradient of vascular plants in North America continued to develop into its modern structure following the Oligocene.
