Quaternary palaeoecology and nature conservation: a general review with examples from the neotropics (2011, background): “Palaeoecological records since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) show that changes in distribution fuelled by climate changes have had important consequences for intraspecific genetic diversity (see also Hewitt, 2000, 2003; Lascaux et al., 2003; Magri, 2008).”
Evolution and temporal diversification of western European polyploid species complexes in Dactylorhiza (Orchidaceae) (2007, background): “In this context, it is noteworthy that the alpine region, where the relationship between D. fuchsii and D. maculata appears especially complex, is considered as an important zone of secondary contact among post-glacial migrants (termed a “suture zone” by Hewitt, 2000).”
Genetic consequences of climatic oscillations in the Quaternary. (2004, background): “Geography and climate determine the distinctive phylogeography of species in different parts of both continents, and North America may also be usefully considered as several principal regions (Hewitt 2000).”
Distribution of Tettigoniinae (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae) bush-crickets in Turkey: the importance of the Anatolian Taurus Mountains in biodiversity and implications for conservation (2004, background): “…during the ice ages pushed many northern populations, especially those found in the Balkans, the Caucasus and/or in northern Anatolia, to the south and led to their isolation and speciation at higher altitudes in southern regions (De Lattin 1967; Hewitt 1996, 2000; Çıplak, unpublished data).”
Long‐distance colonization of the Western Mediterranean by Cistus ladanifer (Cistaceae) despite the absence of special dispersal mechanisms (2009, background): “During the harsh episodes of past glaciations, northern regions were probably climatically unsuitable for strict Mediterranean species such as C. ladanifer (Hewitt, 2000).”
THE GREATER SPOTTED EAGLE AQUILA CLANGA AND THE LESSER SPOTTED EAGLE A. POMARINA: TAXONOMY, PHYLOGEOGRAPHY AND ECOLOGY (2004, background): “During last glacial maximum in Pleistocene, when large areas of Northern and Central Europe were covered by ice and permafrost, animals and plants were concentrated to refugia on southern peninsulas of the continent (Hewitt 2000).”
Genetic differentiation and secondary contact zone in the seagrass Cymodocea nodosa across the Mediterranean–Atlantic transition region (2008, background): “…species tend to be consistent with a ‘leading edge–trailing edge’ paradigm with both rear and leading range edges having impoverished diversity (Hewitt, 1996, 2000; Hampe & Petit, 2005) with low abundance, high extinction risk, low effective size and strong genetic structure among remaining…”
Quaternary range dynamics of ecologically divergent species (Edraianthus serpyllifolius and E. tenuifolius, Campanulaceae) within the Balkan refugium (2011, background): “In the leading edge region – the northern part of the distribution area – genetic diversity is expected to be lower due to repeated founder events and rapid range occupation starting from long-distance colonizers (leadingedge hypothesis; Hewitt, 2000).”
Reproductive ecology of Rhododendron ponticum (Ericaceae) in relict Mediterranean populations (2002, background): “Changes in distributional range would have taken place by means of repeated extinction processes over large parts of its range, and expansions from refugia, depending on climatic oscillations (Comes & Kadereit, 1998; Hewitt, 2000).”
Phylogeographic patterns in the great spotted woodpecker Dendrocopos major across Eurasia (2002, background): “Inspection of paleoecological reconstructions (Hewitt 2000) shows that much of the current range was permafrost 18 000 years ago.”
