Aquifers: the ultimate groundwater-dependent ecosystems (2006, background): “The obligate groundwater faunas of Australia contain numerous geographic and phyletic relict species, as well as of higher taxa (Wilson and Johnson 1999; Wilson 2001, 2003) typically comprising short-range endemic species (Cooper et al. 2002;Leys et al. 2003).”
Rising from Down Under: developments in subterranean biodiversity in Australia from a groundwater fauna perspective (2008, background): “2001a) or a groundwater calcrete (Humphreys 1999a; Taiti and Humphreys 2001; Cooper et al. 2002; Leys et al. 2003; Watts and Humphreys 2003).”
Biodiversity, functional roles and ecosystem services of groundwater invertebrates (2008, background): “…approach to the provision of groundwater ecosystem services complements current studies of stygofaunal systematics and phylogenetics (e.g. Cooper et al. 2002, 2007; Watts and Humphreys 2006), revealing how groundwater ecosystem services may vary with changes in assemblage composition…”
Exploring the relationship between sampling efficiency and short‐range endemism for groundwater fauna in the Pilbara region, Western Australia (2009, background): “usually comprises >50% SREs, with some regions having >90% (Gibert & Deharveng, 2002), and high proportions of SREs have been reported from groundwater of the Australian arid zone (Cooper et al., 2002; Harvey, 2002).”
