Welcome back New Zealand: regional biogeography and Gondwanan origin of three endemic genera of mite harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi) (2009, background): “The South Island: west coast, Southland, Otago and Canterbury The two most widespread species of Cyphophthalmi in New Zealand are Aoraki denticulata (Boyer et al., 2007a) and N. salmoni.”
Evolutionary and biogeographical history of an ancient and global group of arachnids (Arachnida: Opiliones: Cyphophthalmi) with a new taxonomic arrangement (2012, methodology): “Shear’s infraorders do not reflect the phylogenetic relationships obtained here, as suggested in previous studies (Giribet & Boyer, 2002; Boyer et al., 2007b; Giribet et al., 2010).”
Biogeographical regionalisation of the world: a reappraisal (2015, background): “Additionally, molecular phylogenetic analyses of animal taxa with poor dispersal capabilities (Giribet and Edgecombe 2006; Boyer et al. 2007) placed Cape taxa in an Austral clade.”
