A Phytogeographical Metaanalysis of the Semiarid Caatinga Domain in Brazil (2016, background): “Based on the growing number of floristic surveys available in the literature, some biogeographical studies have shown that the CPD has at least two floristic groups: one located in the crystalline peneplains of the Depressão Sertaneja and the other in the sedimentary basins (Araújo et al., 1999; Que”
The diversification of eastern South American open vegetation biomes: Historical biogeography and perspectives (2011, methodology): “Queiroz (2006) recognized seven out of these eight ecoregions (all but the Borborema plateau) as putative regional centers of endemism, based on Leguminosae, the most diverse plant family in Caatinga.”
Woody Plant Diversity, Evolution, and Ecology in the Tropics: Perspectives from Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests (2009, background): “…influential review emphasized a floristic similarity at the family level, a more heterogeneous pattern of diversity is detected even at this high taxonomic level for neotropical SDTF (e.g., LinaresPalomino 2006, Lott & Atkinson 2006, Queiroz 2006; also discussed by Pennington et al. 2006a, p. 9).”
