• Antarctic marine benthic diversity: patterns and processes (2008, background): “Since this topic has been reviewed in detail by a number of authors (Arntz et al., 1997; Gray, 2001; Clarke and Johnston, 2003), here I will concentrate on important recent developments in key areas.”
• Biodiversity and biogeography of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic mollusca (2006, background): “Levels of endemism for the Southern Ocean fauna as a whole vary between taxa, but are comparatively high (Arntz et al., 1997; Clarke and Johnston, 2003).”
• Prospects for survival in the Southern Ocean: vulnerability of benthic species to temperature change (2005, background): “…than related or (2003), with the exception of that for brachiopods (new data) and for isopods, where many recent species have been described and the current number of identified species is over 670 (A. Brandt, personal communication 2004) compared with the 257 quoted in Clarke & Johnston (2003).”
• An Overview of the Animal Forests of the World (2017, background): “…ice coverage, and complete darkness during several months over the year), these communities display high biomass and species diversity (Clarke and Johnston 2003), which makes Antarctic biodiversity on the continental shelf comparable with temperate and nontropical reefs (Clarke 2008;…”
• A roadmap for Antarctic and Southern Ocean science for the next two decades and beyond (2014, background): “Several taxa and ecosystems, for example those in the deep sea (Brandt et al. 2007) and elsewhere (Clarke & Johnston 2003, Cary et al. 2010), are highly diverse.”
• Deep, diverse and definitely different: unique attributes of the world's largest ecosystem (2010, background): “The Southern Ocean (SO) covers an area of 34.8 million km2, with most of it being below 1000 m depth (Clarke and Johnston, 2003).”
• Recent research on Arctic benthos: common notions need to be revised (2005, background): “For comparison, Arntz et al. (1997) and Clarke and Johnston (2003) estimated the number of all known macrozoobenthic species from Antarctica to range between 4,100 and 5,000.”
• Introduction to ANDEEP(ANtarctic benthic DEEP -sea biodiversity: colonization history and recent community patterns)—a tribute to Howard L. Sanders (2004, unknown): “Contrary to the knowledge of the benthos of the Southern Ocean shelf areas, the knowledge of the Southern Ocean deep-sea is scarce, and as in other oceans of the world, in Antarctica the deepsea floor is the largest single benthic habitat, yet remains the least studied (Clarke and Johnston, 2003).”
• Multiple lineages and absence of panmixia in the “circumpolar” crinoid Promachocrinus kerguelensis from the Atlantic sector of Antarctica (2007, background): “Currently the number of animal species recorded to date from the Antarctic continental shelf is 3,000–4,000 (Arntz et al. 1997; Clarke and Johnston 2003), but diversity func-”

• The Antarctic-Magellan connection: Macrobenthos ecology on the shelf and upper slope, a progress report (2005, background): “From many scattered data we know that species richness in the Antarctic can range from very high to very low; overall the species richness was found to be higher than formerly expected (Arntz et al., 1997; Clarke and Johnston, 2003), also in the deep sea (Brandt and Hilbig, 2004).”
• Cryptic mitochondrial lineages in the widespread pycnogonid Colossendeis megalonyx Hoek, 1881 from Antarctic and Subantarctic waters (2010, background): “widespread and abundant pycnogonid in the Southern Ocean which has also been reported from the South Atlantic and South Pacific Oceans.”
• The spatial structure of Antarctic biodiversity (2014, background): “The extent to which such declines are found varies among terrestrial and marine systems in the region (Peck et al. 2006) and among taxa within the marine system (Clarke and Johnston 2003).”
• Genetic homogeneity and circum-Antarctic distribution of two benthic shrimp species of the Southern Ocean, Chorismus antarcticus and Nematocarcinus lanceopes (2010, background): “As consequence of the unique tectonic history, the long isolation, and recurrent large-scale glaciations of Antarctica, the Antarctic marine biota are unique in terms of their physiology, ecology, biogeography, and phylogeny (e.g. Clarke and Johnston 2003; Aronson et al. 2007).”
