Biogeography

postglacial range expansion by long-distance founders at the advancing edge, which reduces genetic diversity in newly colonised regions.

In biogeography, leading-edge colonization refers to postglacial range expansion by long-distance founders at the advancing edge, which reduces genetic diversity in newly colonised regions. This meaning comes from Hewitt (1996) in Biological Journal of the Linnean Society.[1]
