Frontiers of Biogeography — the scientific magazine of the International Biogeography Society (IBS, http://www.biogeography.org/) publishes original research, reviews, opinions and perspectives on the study of the geographical and temporal variations of life at all levels of organization. We also publish news, interviews and articles about disseminating and applying biogeographical knowledge.

Beach on Kayangel atoll, north of the main Belau archipelago, and partulid land snails endemic to the Belau. Most partulids live in trees and are endemic to a single island or archipelago. In this issue, Osborne, Lomolino, and Rundell show that relationships between habitat use and degree of endemicity in Pacific Island land snails conform to the taxon cycle and that, while widespread land snails primarily disperse between archipelago by aerial means, single-archipelago endemic species may disperse between nearby islands within an archipelago via rafting on vegetation.
