• Tolerance of benthic diatoms from temperate aquatic and terrestrial habitats to experimental desiccation and temperature stress (2010, background): “In diatoms, it has recently become clear that a high (pseudo)cryptic species diversity exists (Sarno et al. 2005; Mann & Evans 2007; Vanormelingen et al. 2008a), and closely related species can occupy different niches (Vanelslander et al. 2009).”
• Insights into global diatom distribution and diversity in the world’s ocean (2016, result): “These results are concordant with evidence indicating that most diatom genera are likely to be cosmopolitan due to a high chance of large scale dispersal (64).”
• HOW MANY SPECIES OF ALGAE ARE THERE? (2012, background): “It is very clear, however, that the supposition that diatom species are in general ubiquitous and endemism is rare is not supported by recent studies (Vanormelingen et al. 2008).”
• Evidence for widespread endemism among Antarctic micro-organisms (2010, background): “…do not intend to review the many fundamental/philosophical and practical issues related to the definition of species concepts, there is abundant evidence that for many if not most eukaryotic microbial groups, morphospecies contain much hidden diversity (e.g. Mann, 1999; Vanormelingen et al., 2008).”
• The ecology of freshwater epipelic algae: an update (2008, background): “However, the generalisation of this model to all microorganisms still remains controversial (Coleman 2002; Lachance 2004; Coesel & Krienitz 2008; Vanormelingen et al. 2008).”
• DNA barcoding for species identification and discovery in diatoms (2010, background): “If is indeed significantly constrained by the natural spread of diatom species dispersal over periods of centuries to millions of years (Vanormelingen et al. , 2008a), then new measures may be necessary to avoid unintentional transfers by humans, to avoid problems like those caused by alien plants…”
• The importance of dispersal related and local factors in shaping the taxonomic structure of diatom metacommunities (2009, background): “…and Clarke 1999, Finlay 2002) that microbial communities are exclusively constrained by local environmental factors (Beisner et al. 2006), whilst others have shown strong evidence for dispersal limitation (Vyverman et al. 2007, Crump et al. 2007) and consequent endemism (Vanormelingen et al. 2008).”
