The disjunct distributions of the Lusitanian flora, which are found only in south-west Ireland and northern Iberia, and are generally absent from intervening regions, have been of great interest to biogeographers. There has been much debate as to whether Irish populations represent relicts that survived the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; approximately 21 kya), or whether they recolonized from southern refugia subsequent to the retreat of the ice and, if so, whether this occurred directly (i.e. the result of long distance dispersal) or successively (i.e. in the manner of a ‘steeplechase’, with the English Channel and Irish Sea representing successive ‘water-jumps’ that have to be successfully crossed). In the present study, we used a combined palaeodistribution modelling and phylogeographical approach to determine the glacial history of the Irish spurge, Euphorbia hyberna, the sole member of the Lusitanian flora that is also considered to occur naturally in south-western England. Our findings suggest that the species persisted through the LGM in several southern refugia, and that northern populations are the result of successive recolonization of Britain and Ireland during the postglacial Littletonian warm stage, akin to the ‘steeplechase’ hypothesis.

[ES] Los 3000 metros obstáculos es una especialidad del atletismo ubicada dentro de las pruebas de medio fondo, que comprende la carrera plana y el paso de los obstáculos, incluyendo un foso agua llamado ría. Es la especialidad de atletismo con menos participantes en carrera ya sea en género femenino como en masculino, pero ¿A qué se debe esta baja participación? Tanto la alta exigencia técnica en carrera como los pasos de los obstáculos son una de las razones, ya que, el paso de la ría requiere una refinada técnica y dificultad adquirida. Este estudio analizará a distintas atletas, con el fin de crear el perfil motivacional de las atletas que compiten en esta prueba, encontrar las razones por las que se decantan por otras especialidades del atletismo y no por esta, y con ello averiguar las razones de la baja participación en esta modalidad.
