Historical biogeography of scarabaeine dung beetles (2002, methodology): “…(1991a) but whose Oriental occurrence is Figure 8 Patterns of generic richness and endemism in dung beetles relative to suitable climate type (Davis & Scholtz, 2001) in seven biogeographical regions (Nea ¼ Nearctic, Pal ¼ Palaearctic, Or ¼ Oriental, Afr ¼ Afrotropical, Neo ¼ Neotropical,…”
A seeding experiment for testing tree-community recruitment under variable environments: Implications for forest regeneration and conservation in Mediterranean habitats (2009, background): “The species composition of a plant community is the result of both historical and ecological factors (Archibold, 1994; Davis and Scholtz, 2001; Herzog and Kessler, 2006; Ricklefs, 2006; Qian et al., 2007).”
Biogeography of Iberian freshwater fishes revisited: the roles of historical versus contemporary constraints (2009, background): “The contrasting roles of history and the modern environment in structuring biotic assemblages have spurred long debates (e.g. Davis & Scholtz, 2001; Bonada et al., 2005; Svenning & Skov, 2005; Tedesco et al., 2005).”
Environment–richness relationships for mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians at global and regional scales (2010, background): “or smaller than other studies based on unequal area samples (Latham and Ricklefs 1993; Francis and Currie 1998; Davis and Scholtz 2001; Kalmar and Currie 2006, 2007; Qian et al. 2007b).”
