• A Review of the Fossil Record of Basal Mesozoic Turtles (2017, background): “…by accepting that all ht tp :// do c. re ro .c h shelled turtles, his Testudinata, are more derived than the leather-shelled sea turtles, his Athecata, an idea initially forwarded by Cope (1875) and otherwise emphatically supported by Dollo (1886), Boulenger (1889), and Hay (1905, 1908, 1922).”
• Evolution of the Side-Necked Turtles: The Family Podocnemididae (2011, background): “Podocnemis sextuberculata Cornalia, 1849 SYNONYMY: See Boulenger (1889), Siebenrock (1902), Wermuth and Mertens (1961, 1977), Pritchard and Trebbau (1984: table 3), Iverson (1992).”
• A new cryptic species of pond turtle from southern Italy, the hottest spot in the range of the genus Emys (Reptilia, Testudines, Emydidae) (2005, background): “For decades, the European pond turtle was thought to be a textbook example of a wide ranging, monotypic species (Boulenger 1889; Wermuth & Mertens 1961; Arnold & Burton 1978).”
• Morphology, relationships, and biogeographical significance of an extinct horned crocodile (Crocodylia, Crocodylidae) from the Quaternary of Madagascar (2007, background): “Boulenger (1889) and most subsequent authors regarded C. madagascariensis as a junior subjective synonym of C. niloticus.”
• DINOSAUR GASTRALIA; ORIGIN, MORPHOLOGY, AND FUNCTION (2004, methodology): “The terms plastron (Boulenger, 1889) and parasternum (parasternalia) (Gegenbaur, 1898) have been used to indicate the ventral dermal ‘‘abdominal ribs’’ of crocodylians or Sphenodon, but should be avoided because they have also been used to indicate various other non-homologous anatomical structures.”
• DEVELOPING A PROTOCOL FOR THE CONVERSION OF RANK-BASED TAXON NAMES TO PHYLOGENETICALLY DEFINED CLADE NAMES, AS EXEMPLIFIED BY TURTLES (2004, background): “Based on the few characters known and its geographic distribution, Boulenger (1889) classified this species as a pleurodiran turtle, thus making his ‘Pleurodira’ a polyphyletic group in the context of any current turtle phylogeny.”
