• Species richness patterns and metapopulation processes – evidence from epiphyte communities in boreo‐nemoral forests (2006, background): “It unifies the main perspectives which set the context for the metacommunity framework: the ‘‘patch dynamics’’ perspective, the ‘‘species-sorting’’ perspective and the ‘‘mass-effects’’ perspective (Leibold and Miller 2004).”
• The metacommunity concept: a framework for multi-scale community ecology (2004, background): “More important, however, is that the behaviour of actual metacommunities may depend strongly on how the species pools have evolved (Shurin et al. 2000; Amarasekare 2003; Leibold & Miller 2004).”
• Dispersal‐induced desynchronization: from metapopulations to metacommunities (2004, background): “…metacommunity theory has been to address species coexistence while metapopulation theory has focused on population persistence (Leibold et al. 2004; Leibold & Miller 2004), several studies have considered how the effects of interspecific interactions modulate the metapopulation dynamics of a focal…”
• The role of metacommunity processes in shaping invertebrate rock pool communities along a dispersal gradient (2007, background): “A synthesis for these views is still lacking (Leibold and Miller 2004) although some elements of synthesis have recently been developed by Leibold et al.”
• Invasibility: the Local mechanism driving community assembly and species diversity (2005, background): “This expanded perspective of invasibility has caused us to reconsider some fundamental questions and issues regarding community assembly and species diversity as well as recent discussions involving the notion of metacommunities (Leibold and Miller 2004, Leibold et al. 2004).”
