Speciation and radiations track climate transitions since the Miocene Climatic Optimum: a case study of southern African chameleons (2008, background): “A diverse range of studies suggest that most northern MPA forests are refugia (Eeley et al., 1999; Mazus, 2000; Lawes et al., 2007), and contraction of MPA forests in the Pleistocene produced localized faunal extinctions (Lawes et al.”
Tropical tree community shifts: Implications for wildlife conservation (2010, background): “Less than 5% of the area covered by tropical forests is legally protected; many are subjected to illegal exploitation (Oates, 1996; Peres, 1990; Redford, 1992); and they often occur in fragmented landscapes that limit dispersal (Lawes et al., 2007a).”
