Neo-endemic species are organisms that have recently evolved and are found in specific regions, often as a result of adaptive radiations or environmental changes. They are typically characterized by their limited distribution and are highly specialized to their local habitats. Unlike paleo-endemic species, which have ancient lineages and broader historical ranges, neo-endemics are considered more vulnerable to environmental changes and habitat loss due to their restricted habitats.
