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 …

Abstract Aim The Red Sea is characterised by a unique fauna and historical periods of
desiccation, hypersalinity and intermittent isolation. The origin and contemporary …

The freshwater and marine fish faunas of South America are the most diverse on Earth, with
current species richness estimates standing above 9100 species. In addition, over the last …

Marine biogeographic realms have been inferred from small groups of species in particular
environments (eg, coastal, pelagic), without a global map of realms based on statistical …

When tropical systems lose species, they are often assumed to be buffered against declines
in functional diversity by the ability of the species-rich biota to display high functional …

Understanding how geography, oceanography, and climate have ultimately shaped marine
biodiversity requires aligning the distributions of genetic diversity across multiple taxa. Here …

While there are many generalized schemes representing the biogeographic distribution of
life in the deep sea, reviewed here, a comprehensive analysis has not been undertaken …

Aim To present an updated database of fish species recorded on south‐western Atlantic reef
environments and to explore the ecological drivers of the structure, the latitudinal gradient of …

This atlas provides information on geographic distributions, habitat, taxonomy, and
morphological identification characteristics for 205 of the marine fish species occurring in the …

Delineating regions is an important first step in understanding the evolution and
biogeography of faunas. However, quantitative approaches are often limited at a global …
