Phylogeography of two Atlantic squirrelfishes (Family Holocentridae): exploring links between pelagic larval duration and population connectivity (2006, background): “Reef habitats may have been reduced by 90% in the Caribbean during the last glacial maximum (20,000 years ago), when the sea level was at least 100 m below current levels (Bellwood and Wainwright 2002).”
Atlantic reef fish biogeography and evolution (2007, background): “The second barrier emerged c. 12–18 Ma with the uplift of the Red Sea land bridge, separating the tropical faunas of the Atlantic from the Indian Ocean and closing the Tethys Seaway in the Terminal Tethyan Event (TTE; Steininger & Rögl, 1984; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002).”
Reef fish community structure of the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (Equatorial Western Atlantic): the influence of exposure and benthic composition (2011, background): “One of the most important questions in coral reef ecology is the understanding of how fish communities are structured along a range of environmental variables (Jones and Syms 1998; Bellwood and Wainwright 2002).”
Acoustic behaviors in Hawaiian coral reef fish communities (2014, background): “Coral reef fish communities include sympatric populations of hundreds of species that are concentrated in small geographic areas (Allen & Werner 2002, Bellwood & Wainwright 2002).”
Patterns of distribution and processes of speciation in Brazilian reef fishes (2003, background): “It is difficult to define what is a reef fish (Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002), and for this reason species lists and numbers (and consequently biogeographical analyses) show considerable variation depending on what the authors consider reef fish.”
The status of coral reef ecology research in the Red Sea (2013, background): “…of herbivory between the Red Sea and species-rich regions such as the GBR (the Red Sea has approximately one-third of the herbivore species richness of the GBR; Bellwood and Wainwright 2002) present a unique opportunity to examine how herbivore diversity influences ecosystem process on coral reefs.”
Genetic evaluation of marine biogeographical barriers: perspectives from two widespread Indo‐Pacific snappers (Lutjanus kasmira and Lutjanus fulvus) (2009, background): “Biogeographical provinces are defined by level of endemism and recognized habitat discontinuities (Briggs, 1974; Brown & Lomolino, 1998; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002; Robertson et al., 2004; Floeter et al., 2008).”
Latitudinal gradients in Atlantic reef fish communities: trophic structure and spatial use patterns (2004, background): “Not all patterns found in the Atlantic, however, are likely to be general at the global-scale because of the different evolutionary histories and diversity profiles among ocean basins (Van Alstyne et al., 2001; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002).”
Shifting seas: the impacts of Pleistocene sea‐level fluctuations on the evolution of tropical marine taxa (2015, neutral): “3; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002).”
South‐western Atlantic reef fishes: Zoogeographical patterns and ecological drivers reveal a secondary biodiversity centre in the Atlantic Ocean (2018, background): “Extinctions occurred widely in the Caribbean since the Pliocene (Budd, 2000; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002; Briggs, 2003), but were probably more pervasive in the tropical Brazilian coast (Cowman, 2014; Pinheiro et al., 2017).”
Artisanal fisheries on Kenya’s coral reefs: Decadal trends reveal management needs (2017, background): “Our larger area estimate (which gave a smaller fishery yield) includes additional shallow-water habitats such as sandy lagoon, mangrove fringes and sea grass beds, as these are habitats in which artisanal fishers range to catch reef-associated fin-fishes (Bellwood and Wainright, 2002).”
