Goodbye morphology? A paradigm shift in the delimitation of species in lichenized fungi (2011, background): “It was argued that this morphological stasis may be due to strong selective pressure on physiological characters for adaptation to a specific host (Schröngge et al. 2002) or to extreme environments (Nevo 2001).”
Cryptic species within the wheat curl mite Aceria tosichella (Keifer) (Acari : Eriophyoidea), revealed by mitochondrial, nuclear and morphometric data (2012, background): “This diversification has been observed for myrmecophiles inhabiting ant nests, endoparasites and koinobiont parasites, which have prolonged relationships with their hosts (Schönrogge et al. 2002; Bickford et al. 2007).”
Monitoring change in the abundance and distribution of insects using butterflies and other indicator groups (2005, background): “…in regional sets of functionally distinct subspecific forms (Thompson 1994), including, many believe, local evolution into separate sibling species over short distances, especially among insects with parasitic lifestyles (Elmes et al. 1999; Schönrogge et al. 2002; Thomas et al. in press).”
