Searching for heat in a marine biodiversity hotspot (2009, background): “Here, coral reef fishes (based on available data for 13 fish families; modified after Bellwood et al., 2005; Floeter et al., 2008) and cowries (modified after Paulay & Meyer, 2006) show a high level of congruence between two disparate groups.”
Larval duration of the lionfish, Pterois volitans along the Bahamian Archipelago (2010, background): “Range expansion in the Caribbean is continuing and it is likely that the remaining Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and eastern South America will be invaded due to the biogeographical connectivity of these regions (Cowen et al. 2006; Floeter et al. 2008; Morris and Whitfield 2009; Schofield et al. 2010).”
South‐western Atlantic reef fishes: Zoogeographical patterns and ecological drivers reveal a secondary biodiversity centre in the Atlantic Ocean (2018, background): “…longest among Brazilian states) and its habitat diversity or by the transition region in Espírito Santo state, which shelters biogenic reefs to the north and rocky reefs under upwelling influence to the south (Floeter et al., 2007; Pinheiro, Madureira, Joyeux, & Martins, 2015; Mazzei et al., 2017).”
A realignment of marine biogeographic provinces with particular reference to fish distributions (2012, background): “In the south-eastern Atlantic, the warm-temperate Benguela Province is located between Mossamedes and the Cape of Good Hope (Floeter et al., 2008).”
How many species of goliath grouper are there? Cryptic genetic divergence in a threatened marine fish and the resurrection of a geopolitical species. (2009, background): “Belize and much of coastal Brazil are separated by a well-recognized biogeographic barrier to dispersal, the Amazon and Orinoco River outflows (sensu Briggs 1974 and discussed in Floeter et al. 2008).”
Genetic evaluation of marine biogeographical barriers: perspectives from two widespread Indo‐Pacific snappers (Lutjanus kasmira and Lutjanus fulvus) (2009, background): “Biogeographical provinces are defined by level of endemism and recognized habitat discontinuities (Briggs, 1974; Brown & Lomolino, 1998; Bellwood & Wainwright, 2002; Robertson et al., 2004; Floeter et al., 2008).”
The floating Sargassum (Phaeophyceae) of the South Atlantic Ocean – likely scenarios (2017, background): “The latter species is a new record for the locality (Floeter et al. 2008).”
Speciation in coral-reef fishes (2008, background): “, 2004) and wrasses (some species of the genus Halichoeres; Barber & Bellwood, 2005) in the Atlantic also indicate an origin related to the closure of the Tethys Sea (Floeter et al., 2007).”
Marine shelf habitat: biogeography and evolution (2013, background): “Phylogeographic analysis of the warm-water genera (reviewed in Floeter et al., 2008) has allowed an improved understanding ª 2013 Blackwell Publishing Ltd http://wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/jbi 1023 doi:10.1111/jbi.12082 of the evolution and distribution of the Atlantic fauna.”
The historical biogeography of coral reef fishes: global patterns of origination and dispersal (2013, background): “Our results offer support for the recent works of Rocha et al. (2005), Floeter et al. (2008) and Joyeux et al. (2008), which have suggested that these areas are largely independent and have been isolated from the Indo-Pacific for some time.”
The reef fish assemblage of the Laje de Santos Marine State Park, Southwestern Atlantic: annotated checklist with comments on abundance, distribution, trophic structure, symbiotic associations, and conservation (2008, background): “Despite the position of the study site at subtropical latitudes, the local reef fish fauna more closely resembles that of the tropical Western Atlantic and Northeastern Brazilian coast than that of the southern temperate reefs (Floeter et al. 2008).”
