Endemism and dispersal: comparative phylogeography of three surgeonfishes across the Hawaiian Archipelago (2009, background): “Many surgeonWshes are widely distributed, including several Indo-PaciWc species that have extended their range across the world’s widest oceanic expanse, the East PaciWc Barrier ( Robertson et al. 2004 ).”
The Great American Schism: Divergence of Marine Organisms After the Rise of the Central American Isthmus (2008, background): “…been in place for the entire Cenozoic (Grigg & Hey 1992) and accounts for the deepest cladogenic events in many taxa, but is also known to have been breached after the rise of the Isthmus by sea urchins (Lessios et al. 1996, 1998, 2003) and fish (Robertson et al. 2004, Lessios & Robertson 2006).”
High genetic connectivity across the Indian and Pacific Oceans in the reef fish Myripristis berndti (Holocentridae) (2007, background): “This geographic range makes M. berndti one of the most widely distributed reef fishes (Randall & Greenfield 1996, Robertson et al. 2004).”
Genetic evaluation of marine biogeographical barriers: perspectives from two widespread Indo‐Pacific snappers (Lutjanus kasmira and Lutjanus fulvus) (2009, background): “Biogeographical provinces are defined by level of endemism and recognized habitat discontinuities (Briggs, 1974; Brown & Lomolino, 1998; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002; Robertson et al., 2004; Floeter et al., 2008).”
Atlantic reef fish biogeography and evolution (2007, background): “However, it is important to note that Robertson et al. (2004) reviewed the literature and showed that 10 out of 16 EP species (0.63 ratio) are more closely related to Indo-Pacific than to NWA lineages.”
Shore fishes and biogeographic subdivisions of the Tropical Eastern Pacific (2009, background): “Our database includes 1135 species of ‘TEP residents’, species whose abundance and/or distributions indicate they have self-sustaining populations in the region (cf. Robertson et al. 2004).”
Phylogeography of two Atlantic squirrelfishes (Family Holocentridae): exploring links between pelagic larval duration and population connectivity (2006, background): “Robertson et al. (2004) note that pelagicfeeding reef fishes tend to have broad distributions across the central and eastern Pacific, indicating greater dispersal ability.”
CAUSES OF LATITUDINAL GRADIENTS IN SPECIES RICHNESS: A TEST WITH FISHES OF THE TROPICAL EASTERN PACIFIC (2005, background): “…by conditions in or constraints that define the TEP); trans-Pacific fishes that appear to have migrated to the TEP from elsewhere in the Pacific (see Robertson et al. 2004); species that are vagrants in the region (rather than having self-sustaining populations there); and a handful of species…”
Marine shelf habitat: biogeography and evolution (2013, background): “Overall, the geographic locations of the newer species and the directions of dispersal identify centres of successful speciation in the IWP, North Pacific, Western Atlantic and the high-latitude Southern Ocean.”
The historical biogeography of coral reef fishes: global patterns of origination and dispersal (2013, background): “While the influence of the Indo-Pacific biota on the Atlantic fauna has been recorded recently (Robertson et al., 2004; Rocha et al., 2005; Bowen et al., 2006), it has made little overall impact to the extant biodiversity of the Atlantic and East Pacific regions (Fig.”
Island biogeography: patterns of marine shallow‐water organisms in the Atlantic Ocean (2015, background): “, 2013), especially for reef fishes, which are able to disperse further than gastropods and seaweeds (Kinlan & Gaines, 2003; Robertson et al., 2004; Luiz et al., 2012; Bowen et al., 2013).”
Reef fish community structure in the Tropical Eastern Pacific (Panamá): living on a relatively stable rocky reef environment (2006, background): “…X Urolophidae Urobatis halleri MI X X Zanclidae Zanclus cornutusa SI X X X X aIndo-Pacific species bCircumtropical species (Atlantic and Pacific) cSpecies from both sides of the Isthmus of Panama (Edgar et al. 2004; Robertson et al. 2004; Robertson and Allen 2002) communication; Genin et al. 2005).”
