The ecology of the freshwater life stages of the amphidromous shrimps Caridina leucosticta,
C. typus and C. multidentata from southwestern Japan has been well studied. However, the …

Aim We examine the influence of fluctuating sea levels in a land‐bridge archipelago on the
apportioning of intraspecific genetic diversity and divergence in the widespread Puerto …

Diversification and speciation of terrestrial organisms are anticipated in oceanic islands
such as Macaronesia, a group of Atlantic islands that have remained unconnected to …

Abstract Background The Falkland Islands and Patagonia are traditionally assigned to the
Magellan Biogeographic Province. Most marine species in Falkland waters are also …

The mechanisms driving genetic structure in marine systems are elusive due to the difficulty
of identifying temporal and spatial barriers to dispersal. By studying marine invertebrate …

The extent of dispersal by pelagic larvae in marine environments, including coral reefs, is
central for understanding local population dynamics and designing sustainable marine …

Recent phylogeographic studies have overturned three paradigms for the origins of marine
biodiversity.(i) Physical (allopatric) isolation is not the sole avenue for marine speciation …

The timing and extent of international crossings by billfishes, tunas, and sharks in the Cuba-
Mexico-United States (US) triangle was investigated using electronic tagging data from eight …

I examine the natural barriers to distribution and colonization that have shaped the
Galapagos marine invertebrate biota. While diversity is high for some groups, such as …

Aim To reveal underlying distributional mechanisms of tropical reef fishes in the South
Atlantic. Location The tropical South Atlantic, with emphasis on the Brazilian province …
