- Diminishing return on investment for biodiversity data in conservation planning (2008, methodology): “This rate was assigned to vegetation types (described in Mucina & Rutherford 2006) based on their vulnerability values (Reyers et al. 2007).”
- Reconciling approaches to biogeographical regionalization: a systematic and generic framework examined with a case study of the Australian continent (2007, background): “The vegetation classification of Mucina & Rutherford (2006) for southern Africa covered three levels (biome, bioregion, vegetation type).”
- Commercially Important Trees as Invasive Aliens – Towards Spatially Explicit Risk Assessment at a National Scale (2002, methodology): “The following variables were also included: vegetation types and biome (Low and Rebelo 1996), land cover (Fairbanks et al.”
- Climate change drives speciation in the southern rock agama (Agama atra) in the Cape Floristic Region, South Africa (2009, background): “Following an initial colonization event c. 64,000 years ago, the clade may have become isolated by repeated marine transgressions throughout the Pleistocene interglacial (Hendey, 1983a; Mucina & Rutherford, 2006).”
- Projecting climate change impacts on species distributions in megadiverse South African Cape and Southwest Australian Floristic Regions: Opportunities and challenges (2009, background): “In both the SWAFR and CFR, soils, landforms and hydrogeology are also major determinants of floristic and vegetation patterns at regional and local scales (Gioia & Pigott 2002; Gibson et al. 2004; Groom 2004; McKenzie et al. 2004; Mucina et al. 2006; Rebelo et al. 2006).”
