Molecular systematics of the cashew family (Anacardiaceae) (2004, background): “Schinus terebinthifolia (Brazilian pepper tree, pink peppercorns) is another notorious, problematic species in the Everglades of central and southern Florida, the Hawaiian Islands, and various other parts of the subtropics and tropics (Gilman, 1999; Mitchell in Smith et al., 2004).”
Burmese amber: evidence of Gondwanan origin and Cretaceous dispersion (2018, background): “…and Poinar and T. pentaptera Poinar and Chambers (Figure 2) have affinities with the Cunionaceae, which is essentially a Gondwanan family, with extant populations in the South American tropics, Madagascar, Malesia, Australia, South Pacific and the western Indian ocean (Bradford 2004) (Figure 1).”
Early evolutionary history of the flowering plant family Annonaceae: steady diversification and boreotropical geodispersal (2011, background): “The South American rain forests alone hold 30% of the world’s plant diversity (Smith et al., 2004).”
‘Andean‐centred’ genera in the short‐branch clade of Annonaceae: testing biogeographical hypotheses using phylogeny reconstruction and molecular dating (2006, background): “Around a third of all flowering plants are found in the Neotropics (tropical America) (Smith et al., 2004).”
