Review of plant biogeographic studies in Brazil (2009, background): “We divided the country into five main phytogeographic domains: Amazon, Cerrado, Atlantic Forest (including the Araucaria forests), Caatinga, and Campos sulinos (Fig.”
Prospects for biodiversity conservation in the Atlantic Forest: Lessons from aging human-modified landscapes (2010, background): “Bahia; Serra do Mar) sustain exceptionally high levels of alpha and beta diversity for plants, mammals, birds, frogs, butterflies and ants (Brown and Freitas, 2000; Costa et al., 2000).”
Phylogeography of Xiphorhynchus fuscus (Passeriformes, Dendrocolaptidae): vicariance and recent demographic expansion in southern Atlantic forest (2007, background): “For example, small mammals present biogeographical divergence among north-eastern Minas Gerais, south-eastern Minas Gerais, and southwards regions (Mustrangi & Patton, 1997; Costa et al., 2000).”
The historical bridge between the Amazon and the Atlantic Forest of Brazil: a study of molecular phylogeography with small mammals (2003, background): “Vanzolini (1988), Bates et al. (1998) and Costa et al. (2000) have noted a latitudinal break in the distribution of Atlantic Forest vertebrates, which separates the north from the south in reptiles, lowland birds and lowland mammals, the latter two using parsimony analysis of endemicity.”
Areas of endemism for passerine birds in the Atlantic forest, South America (2004, background): “Several authors have investigated the historical relationships of the Atlantic Forest with other lowland forest regions in South America (Cracraft & Prum, 1988; Bates, 1998; Costa et al. , 2000).”
Historical climate modelling predicts patterns of current biodiversity in the Brazilian Atlantic forest (2008, methodology): “Analyses of species distribution employing various organisms and analytical methods (Prance, 1982; Soderstrom et al., 1988; Tyler et al., 1994; Costa et al., 2000; da Silva et al., 2004) are remarkably similar in pointing out distinct Bahia and Pernambuco centres of endemism in north-eastern Brazil…”
