• The resurrection of oceanic dispersal in historical biogeography. (2005, background): “Other taxa for which molecular dating has supported oceanic dispersal over tectonic vicariance include freshwater teleosts [ 15 ,16] ,c arnivores[17] ,l emurs[17], monkeys [18], squamate reptiles [19,20] ,f rogs[21], flightless insects [22], and angiosperms in the Malpighiaceae [23], Rapateaceae [24”
• Has Vicariance or Dispersal Been the Predominant Biogeographic Force in Madagascar? Only Time Will Tell (2006, background): “As potentially decisive support for the dispersal hypotheses, divergence ages for the Malagasy lineages are shown to be far too recent to be compatible with ancient vicariance (Murray 2001, Vences et al. 2001).”
• Phylogeography of Ptychadena mascareniensis suggests transoceanic dispersal in a widespread African‐Malagasy frog lineage (2004, background): “The Indian Ocean has in the recent years been intensively used as model region to explore transoceanic dispersal phenomena (e.g. Arnold, 2000; Vences et al., 2001; Raxworthy et al., 2002; Yoder et al., 2003).”
• Around the world in 10 million years: biogeography of the nearly cosmopolitan true toads (Anura: Bufonidae) (2007, background): “Other groups with a wide or ‘Gondwanan distribution’, such as boine snakes, iguanine lizards, pelomedusoid turtles, abelisauroid theropod dinosaurs, cichlid fish and gondwanatherian mammals, are also notably absent from Australia (Sampson et al., 1998; Vences et al., 2001; Noonan & Chippindale, 2006”
• Natural colonization or introduction? Phylogeographical relationships and morphological differentiation of house geckos (Hemidactylus) from Madagascar (2004, background): “, 1999, Farias, Orti & Meyer, 2000; Bossuyt & Milinkovitch, 2001) or by Cenozoic dispersal (e.g. Krause, Hartman & Wells, 1997; Vences et al., 2001), with colonists arriving by overseas dispersal (e.”
