- Molecules, ecology, morphology, and songs in concert: how many species is Arremon torquatus (Aves: Emberizidae)? (2009, unknown): “Simpson GG. 1951.”
- Species concepts and species delimitation. (2007, background): “Any given species is but one of many segments that make up such a species level lineage.”
- Mammalian Response to Cenozoic Climatic Change (2009, background): “Prolonged environmental change may also contribute to anagenesis, recognized by up to millions of years of unidirectional morphological change in the fossil record (Simpson 1951).”
- DNA-based species delimitation in algae (2014, background): “The application of this so-called ‘evolutionary species concept’ (Simpson, 1951), however, was problematic because it was purely theoretical and at that time of little practical use for species delimitation.”
- Implications of different species concepts for conserving biodiversity (2012, background): “…used by the systematic and conservation communities are the biological species concept (BSC; Mayr, 1942, 1963), the evolutionary species concept (ESC; Simpson, 1951, 1961; Wiley, 1978) and the phylogenetic species concept (PSC; Eldredge and Cracraft, 1980; Cracraft, 1997), as defined in Table 1.”
- How to fail at species delimitation (2013, background): “…either explicitly state or imply that a primary goal of the research is to identify independent evolutionary lineages, which are equivalent to metapopulation lineages through time (Simpson 1951; Wiley 1978; de Queiroz 2005) and commonly interpreted as evolutionarily significant units (Moritz 1994).”
- Deciphering the products of evolution at the species level: the need for an integrative taxonomy (2009, background): “Introduction Almost 60 years after the proposal of the evolutionary species concept (Simpson 1951), systematists are only recently accepting that species are temporal segments of separately evolving lineages (Wiens 2007).”
