The diversification of Nearctic mammals in the Mexican transition zone (2004, background): “Both newer approaches have shown that traditionally recognized biogeographical units may not represent natural units (Morrone, 2002).”
The spectre of biogeographical regionalization (2018, background): “Although some authors refer occasionally to ‘phytogeographic’ and ‘zoogeographic’ regionalizations (e.g. Cox, 2001), the ultimate goal should be to integrate all taxonomic distributions in a single biogeographical system (Morrone, 2002; Proches & Ramdhani, 2012).”
Biogeographic areas and transition zones of Latin America and the Caribbean islands based on panbiogeographic and cladistic analyses of the entomofauna. (2006, background): “NEOTROPICAL REGION The Neotropical region comprises the tropics of the New World, i.e., most of South America, Central America, southern Mexico, the West Indies, and southern Florida (3, 8, 24, 31, 38, 82, 88, 89, 94, 124, 163).”
A framework for delineating biogeographical regions based on species distributions (2010, background): “Overall, the largely non-replicable nature of these approaches has also led to considerable confusion and ongoing disagreement (Cox, 2001; Morrone, 2002; Fig.”
Biogeographical regionalisation of the Neotropical region. (2014, background): “…region has had a long and complex history (Rapoport 1968; Sánchez Osés & Pérez-Hernández 1998, 2005; Cox 2001; Pérez-Hernández & Lew 2001; Morrone 2002a, 2010a), with many phytogeographical, zoogeographical, biogeographical and ecoregional schemes proposed for over 150 years for the…”
Identifying global zoogeographical regions: lessons from Wallace (2013, background): “Finally, the austral region (Chilean subregion of Wallace), which is sometimes distinguished from the rest of the Neotropics (see Morrone, 2002), is relatively small, depauparate and lacks any obvious geographical barrier, and probably largely appears due to the sharp climatic gradient from…”
Biogeology of Wallacea: geotectonic models, areas of endemism, and natural biogeographical units (2010, background): “Morrone (2002) discussed how many of these traditionally recognized regions have been criticized by panbiogeographers and vicariance biogeographers as non natural because their analyses suggested that the regions were biologically composite.”
Ecotones: Marginal or Central Areas of Transition? (2006, background): “At large scales, ecotones have been used to define the spatial boundaries of biogeographical regions, which in turn have formed and continue to form a significant, though often contentious, basis for understanding the evolutionary history of life on Earth (see Cox, 2001; Morrone, 2002).”
Dispersal vs. vicariance in the Mediterranean: historical biogeography of the Palearctic Pachydeminae (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea) (2003, background): “There is still an ongoing debate about the definition of areas of endemism in historical biogeography (Harold & 2003 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Journal of Biogeography, 30, 1883–1897 Mooi, 1994; Cox, 2001; Linder, 2001; Morrone, 2002).”
Biogeographical regionalisation of the world: a reappraisal (2015, background): “…region (Sclater 1858; Murray 1866; Kirby 1872; Wallace 1876; Sclater 1894; Bartholomew et al. 1911; Darlington 1957; Pielou 1979, 1992; Müller 1986; Morrone 2002; Escalante et al. 2010, 2013; Procheş and Ramdhani 2012), a subregion (Smith 1983) or a kingdom (Udvardy 1975; Morain 1984; Udvardy…”
