Palaearctic biogeography revisited: evidence for the existence of a North African refugium for Western Palaearctic biota (2014, background): “…found, for example in the ivy genus Hedera (Grivet & Petit, 2002), lizards of the genera Podarcis (Oliverio et al., 2000; Harris & S a-Sousa, 2002; Pinho et al., 2007a,b, 2008; Kaliontzopoulou et al., 2011) and Timon (Paulo et al., 2008; Perera & Harris, 2010), vipers (Brito et al., 2011),…”
From climate change predictions to actions – conserving vulnerable animal groups in hotspots at a regional scale (2010, background): “The high biodiversity derives from the fact that this area was one of the major glacial refugia in Europe during the Pleistocene (Hewitt, 1996) and a diversification centre afterwards (Gómez & Lunt, 2006; Pinho et al., 2007).”
When cryptic diversity blurs the picture: a cautionary tale from Iberian and North African Podarcis wall lizards (2011, methodology): “The lineages of P. vaucheri appear to have diverged in southern Iberia at approximately 4.01 and 4.97 Mya (Table 2) and later invaded North Africa (see above).”
