The lack of termite diversity in the Neotropical coastal desert can be attributed to its climate and geographical barriers of the Pacific Ocean and the Andes. The entire coast of Peru and much of the Chilean coast is arid, but profound aridity (≤ 20 mm/yr) begins near Pacasmayo, Peru, and extends southward to approximately Copiapo, Chile (Fig. 5, climate data from http://www.weatherbase.com/). Although

as a result of Humboldt Current cooling, this region is transected by many wooded riparian habitats fed by rain and snowmelt runoff from the Andes, providing food (wood) for only three termite species.
