  abstract = {{N}ew {C}aledonia has generally been considered a continental island, the biota of which largely dates back to {G}ondwanan times owing to its geological origin and the presence of phylogenetic relicts. {T}his view is contradicted by geological evidence indicating long {P}alaeocene and {E}ocene submersions and by recent biogeographic and phylogenetic studies, with molecular or geophysical dating placing the biota no older than the {O}ligocene. {P}hylogenetic relicts do not provide conclusive information in this respect, as their presence cannot be explained by simple hypotheses but requires assumption of many ad hoc extinction events. {T}he implication of this new scenario is that all the {N}ew {C}aledonian biota colonized the island since 37 {M}a {L}ocal richness can be explained by local radiation and adaptation after colonization but also by many dispersal events, often repeated within the same groups of organisms. {L}ocal microendemism is another remarkable feature of the biota. {I}t seems to be related to recent speciation mediated by climate, orography, soil type and perhaps unbalanced biotic interactions created by colonization disharmonies. {N}ew {C}aledonia must be considered as a very old {D}arwinian island, a concept that offers many more fascinating opportunities of study.},
