When molecules and morphology concur: the ‘Gondwanan’ midges (Diptera: Chironomidae) (2010, background): “Three podonomine taxa were included in a study of sub-Antarctic midges using sequences of 28S ribosomal RNA (domains 1 and 3–5) (Allegrucci et al., 2005). None of these efforts purported to address wider issues in podonomine phylogenetics, namely: the monophyly of Podonominae, the identity of its si”
Surviving out in the cold: Antarctic endemic invertebrates and their refugia (2008, background): “A recent phylogeny of Chironomidae (Diptera) suggests that the two species endemic to (1) the Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands, and (2) sub-Antarctic South Georgia diverged from each other c. 49 Ma and from other Gondwanan sister taxa c. 68 Ma (Allegrucci et al., 2006).”
Is the Scotia Sea a centre of Antarctic marine diversification? Some evidence of cryptic speciation in the circum-Antarctic bivalve Lissarca notorcadensis (Arcoidea: Philobryidae) (2007, background): “On land, glacial events are important in structuring the genetic diversity of terrestrial arthropods (Allegrucci et al. 2006; Frati et al. 2001; Stevens and Hogg, 2003, 2006).”
The terrestrial and freshwater invertebrate biodiversity of the archipelagoes of the Barents Sea; Svalbard, Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya (2014, background): “…of the timing of divergence events, both between species and between populations within species, potentially allowing detailed descriptions of dispersal and colonization patterns (Allegrucci et al., 2006; Stevens, 2006; Stevens et al., 2006, 2007; McGaughran et al., 2010; Mortimer et al., 2011).”
Conservation biogeography of the Antarctic (2012, background): “By complete contrast, modern genetic studies have described considerable biogeographic complexity (Allegrucci et al., 2006; Stevens & Hogg, 2006; De Wever et al., 2009; McGaughran et al., 2010; Wagstaff et al., 2011), although at present too few studies have been undertaken to apply formal…”
Accidental transfer of non-native soil organisms into Antarctica on construction vehicles (2010, background): “…of the South Shetland Islands was raised by Convey and Block (1996), preliminary molecular phylogenetic analyses have indicated that South Shetland, South Georgia and Patagonian populations of this taxon have been separate on a timescale of up to 6–7 million years (Allegrucci et al. 2006).”
Contrasting phylogeographical patterns for springtails reflect different evolutionary histories between the Antarctic Peninsula and continental Antarctica (2009, background): “Glacial events are important in structuring the genetic diversity of Antarctic terrestrial arthropods (e.g. Frati et al., 2001; Allegrucci et al., 2006; McGaughran et al., 2008) and other biota (see Rogers, 2007).”
Antarctic terrestrial biodiversity in a changing world (2011, background): “At one extreme lie studies, such as those of Allegrucci et al. (2006) and De Wever et al. (2009) that suggest isolation and evolution of some taxa within the region on timescales consistent with the final stages of Gondwana breakup and the separation of Antarctica (40–50 million years and longer).”
ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Diversity and biogeography of the Antarctic flora (2007, background): “…to date for any terrestrial organism in Antarctica (of the evolutionary relationships between endemic maritime and sub-Antarctic chironomid midges; Allegrucci et al., 2006) has proposed separation events on a time-scale (c. 40 Myr) similar to that of the various tectonic elements now occupied…”
Terrestrial biodiversity in Antarctica - recent advances and future challenges (2010, background): “These include, for instance, (1) the long-term (>c. 50 Myr) persistence of ‘sister’ chironomid midge species endemic to different and tectonically distinct elements of the Antarctic Peninsula and Scotia Arc (Allegrucci et al., 2006), on a timescale consistent with the geological separation of Antarc”
The spatial structure of Antarctic biodiversity (2014, background): “There is increasing molecular and classical biogeographic evidence for ancient radiations and vicariance (e.g., Allegrucci et al. 2006, 2012, Maslen and Convey 2006, Chown and Convey 2007), and/or expansion from refugial centers within the region itself, and survival through (at least) multiple…”
