Abstract
The author reviews genotypic responses to aridity locally and regionally within Israel, and globally across phylogeny; and discusses genotypic and phenotypic responses to aridity (as adaptive radiation) in an actively speciating taxon, mole rats of the Spalax ehrenbergi superspecies. (Mostly) indirect evidence for climatic selection is presented at both the molecular and organismal level. -P.J.Jarvis
