Slow, but steady: dispersal of freshwater molluscs (2011, background): “Nevertheless, successful establishment after extreme but natural longdistance transport, e.g., to the Hawaiian Islands, probably only occurs at a frequency of 1–4 events per million years per site (e.g., Cowie and Holland 2006).”
Probabilistic historical biogeography: new models for founder-event speciation, imperfect detection, and fossils allow improved accuracy and model-testing (2013, positive): “… 1990s, many reached the conclusion that many clades were too young to be explained by vicariance events caused by continental breakups in the Mesozoic (Zink, Blackwell-‐Rago & Ronquist 2000; Donoghue & Moore 2003; de Queiroz 2005; Cowie & Holland 2006).”
Why be amphidromous: expatrial dispersal and the place of source and sink population dynamics? (2010, neutral): “…disappear beneath the sea—as has been well documented for the Hawaiian Islands, where there has been serial emergence of new volcanic islands at the north-western extremity of the archipelago (Carson and Clague 1995; Kroenke 1996; Polhemus 1996; Cowie and Holland 2006; Holland and Cowie 2006).”
Welcome back New Zealand: regional biogeography and Gondwanan origin of three endemic genera of mite harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi) (2009, background): “Therefore, the New Zealand archipelago has been viewed as a unique system for studying the evolution of a continental fauna in a state of isolation usually seen only in volcanic islands formed in the mid-ocean (Daugherty et al., 1993; Cowie & Holland, 2006).”
Model selection in historical biogeography reveals that founder-event speciation is a crucial process in Island Clades. (2014, background): “Founder-event speciation is particularly likely to be important in oceanic island systems (Carlquist 1974; Paulay and Meyer 2002; de Queiroz 2005; Cowie and Holland 2006; Gillespie et al. 2012).”
Inferring dispersal: a Bayesian approach to phylogeny‐based island biogeography, with special reference to the Canary Islands (2008, background): “Dispersal is typically considered the key process generating biological diversity in islands (Emerson, 2002; Lomolino et al., 2005; Cowie & Holland, 2006), even though vicariance is sometimes invoked to explain within-island (Juan et al., 2000) or even inter-island speciation (e.g. Pleistocene fluct”
Has Vicariance or Dispersal Been the Predominant Biogeographic Force in Madagascar? Only Time Will Tell (2006, background): “Finally, given their less stringent life history attributes, credulity is far less strained by hypotheses of long-distance dispersal in plants and invertebrates (Barnes et al. 2006, Cowie & Holland 2006, Monaghan et al. 2005, Thiel & Gutow 2005).”
The role of molecular genetics in sculpting the future of integrative biogeography (2008, background): “Credulity is even less strained by hypotheses of long-distance dispersal in plants and invertebrates given their less stringent lifehistory attributes (Monaghan et al., 2005; Thiel and Gutow, 2005; Barnes et al., 2006; Cowie and Holland, 2006).”
Is a new paradigm emerging for oceanic island biogeography? (2007, background): “…evidence of long-distance dispersal from continents to other continents, from continents to oceanic islands, and among oceanic islands (e.g. Gillespie & Roderick, 2002; Filardi & Moyle, 2005; Glor et al., 2005; de Queiroz, 2005; Cowie & Holland, 2006; Jansa et al., 20062 ; Rocha et al., 2006).”
Hello New Zealand (2006, background): “However, the accepted idea that New Zealand is an ancient continental landmass distinguishes it from oceanic island systems that are foci for evolutionary study, and in particular for the study of the role of dispersal (Cowie & Holland, 2006).”
Changing perspectives on the biogeography of the tropical South Pacific: influences of dispersal, vicariance and extinction (2009, background): “Even when extinctions are considered, LDD plays a central role in the biogeography of oceanic islands (Cowie & Holland, 2006) and explains many of the current patterns of the biota on oceanic islands in the TSP, as has also been identified for Hawaii (Simon, 1991; Wagner, 1991; Wagner & Funk, 1995).”
