The Azores diversity enigma: why are there so few Azorean endemic flowering plants and why are they so widespread? (2009, background): “This fact was acknowledged by Whittaker et al. (2008) when they presented their general dynamic theory of oceanic biogeography and might be the reason for the taxon dependence of their model in arthropod groups (Borges & Hortal, 2009).”
Species richness and evolutionary speed: the influence of temperature, water and area (2014, background): “…rates and/or lower extinction rates, have been demonstrated for larger areas among plants, mammals, birds, reptiles, arthropods and marine foraminifera (Cardillo et al., 2005; Allen et al., 2006; Ricklefs, 2006; Ricklefs et al., 2007; Borges & Hortal, 2009; Kisel et al., 2011; Zobel et al., 2011).”
Island, archipelago and taxon effects: mixed models as a means of dealing with the imperfect design of nature's experiments (2012, methodology): “2005, Borges and Hortal 2009) and Coleoptera on the Canaries (Izquierdo et al. 2004) were not included in the study of Whittaker et al. (2008). Data on isolation from the nearest island and from the mainland (both in km) were obtained from UNEP island directory ( http:// islands.”
Increase of island endemism with altitude – speciation processes on oceanic islands (2012, background): “It has been shown that for habitat specialists the relation between diversiﬁ cation and age may even be the opposite of the general trend if the associated habitat area varies diﬀ erent then the overall island area (Borges and Hortal 2009).”
Drivers of diversity in Macaronesian spiders and the role of species extinctions (2010, background): “The consideration of island age and a possible hump-shaped relationship between age and diversity was the basis for the recently proposed ‘general dynamic model of oceanic island biogeography’ (hereafter GDM) by Whittaker et al. (2008, 2010; see also Borges & Hortal, 2009; Fattorini, 2009).”
