Iridaceae ‘Out of Australasia’? Phylogeny, Biogeography, and Divergence Time Based on Plastid DNA Sequences (2008, background): “…the few other but better known examples such as Cunoniaceae, Myrtaceae, Podocarpaceae, Restionaceae, Winteraceae (e.g. Sanmartín and Ronquist 2004; Galley and Linder 2006; Sytsma et al. 2004) and a few more including Colchicaceae, Gunneraceae, and perhaps Menyanthaceae and Proteaceae (Raven and…”
Tropical and Temperate: Evolutionary History of Páramo Flora (2011, background): “…in which species of several Afro-montane genera are phylogenetically nested within clades from the Cape floristic region, suggesting a northward migration from South Africa and rejecting hypotheses assuming dispersal in the opposite direction and of a relictual distribution (Galley & Linder, 2006).”
Origin of Mediterranean insular endemics in the Boraginales: integrative evidence from molecular dating and ancestral area reconstruction (2009, background): “…McGuire & Kron, 2005), Iris and Moraea (Iridaceae; Reeves et al., 2001), Centaurium and Chironia–Orphium (Gentianaceae; Mansion & Struwe, 2004), and Echium and Lobostemon (Boraginaceae; Böhle et al., 1996), although often without the benefit of molecular dating estimates (Galley & Linder, 2006).”
Island biogeography of tropical alpine floras (2014, background): “Numerous arrivals from northern temperate regions into montane and alpine East Africa have been documented (Galley & Linder, 2006; Assefa et al., 2007; Popp et al., 2008) – including multiple independent events in Carex and Ranunculus – but the contribution of immigrating taxa to recent species…”
Birth of a biome: insights into the assembly and maintenance of the Australian arid zone biota (2008, background): “Yet the origin and assembly of these major biomes also reflects unique evolutionary and colonisation histories acted out on a stage of significant global environmental change (Pennington et al. 2004; Sanmartin & Ronquist 2004; Poux et al. 2005; Crisp 2006; Galley & Lindner 2006).”
Biogeographical regionalisation of the world: a reappraisal (2015, background): “Galley and Linder (2006) found a complex pattern, with both Austral and tropical plant clades coexisting, but no conclusive evidence to separate the Cape region from the rest of the Ethiopian region.”
The evolution of African plant diversity (2014, background): “Typical elements are Restionaceae (e.g., Elegia), Proteaceae (e.g., Protea, Mimetes), as well as taxa typical of the Drakensberg grasslands (e.g., Brownleea, Kniphofia).”
