Searching for heat in a marine biodiversity hotspot (2009, background): “However, many of these studies (Briggs, 2000, 2005; Roberts et al., 2002; Mora et al., 2003; Carpenter & Springer, 2005) assume that endemics are far more likely to indicate sites of origin than sites of reliction (remnants of previously more widespread populations).”
Ecology of Anguilliform Leptocephali: Remarkable Transparent Fish Larvae of the Ocean Surface Layer (2009, background): “…marine eel species living and spawning in warm tropical areas, such as the Indonesian Seas (Wouthuyzen et al. 2005), where the biodiversity Aqua-BioScience Monographs VOL. 2 NO. 4 2009 of fishes is generally the highest in the world (Randall 1998; Allen and Adrim 2003; Carpenter and Springer 2005).”
Trophic and benthic responses to no-take marine reserve protection in the Philippines. (2009, background): “…in a no-take zone on an inshore island fringing reef of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, no other example of the relationship between herbivores, algae and corals within reserves is available in the western Pacific, where coral reef biodiversity is highest (Veron 2000, Carpenter & Springer 2005).”
Exploitation-related reef fish species richness depletion in the epicenter of marine biodiversity (2011, background): “shows a different pattern of species richness from historical data sets (Fig. 1; Carpenter and Springer 2005; Allen 2008) in that unlike the recent transect data, historical data shows the VR with the highest species richness.”
Marine fish diversity: history of knowledge and discovery (Pisces) (2010, background): “Authors differ as to whether the so - called center of origin of coral reef species is the Philippines ( Carpenter & Springer 2005 ) or West Papua , Indonesia ( Allen & Erdmann 2009 ) .”
Origins of species richness in the Indo‐Malay‐Philippine biodiversity hotspot: evidence for the centre of overlap hypothesis (2013, background): “During the Oligocene and early Miocene, the Pacific and Indian Oceans were connected via an extension of the Southern Equatorial Current known as the Indonesian Seaway (Hall, 2002; see also Figure 2 in Carpenter & Springer, 2005).”
Hope for Threatened Tropical Biodiversity: Lessons from the Philippines (2008, background): “The archipelago is also a center of nearshore animal diversity, most notably of corals, reef fish, marine snails, and lobsters (Roberts et al. 2002, Carpenter and Springer 2005).”
Comparative Phylogeography of the Coral Triangle and Implications for Marine Management (2011, background): “It has repeatedly been noted that the above hypotheses are not mutually exclusive—that all of the above processes are potentially building biodiversity in the Coral Triangle [7, 8, 51].”
