Invasive species and biodiversity crises: testing the link in the late devonian. [PDF]
During the Late Devonian Biodiversity Crisis, the primary driver of biodiversity decline was the dramatic reduction in speciation rates, not elevated extinction rates; however, the causes of speciation decline have been previously unstudied.

But they move! Vicariance and dispersal in southern South America: Using two methods to reconstruct the biogeography of a clade of lizards endemic to South America. [PDF]
This study aims to identify events that modeled the historical biogeography of Phymaturus, using three methodologies: Spatial Analysis of Vicariance (VIP), Statistical Dispersal-Vicariance Analysis (S-DIVA), and Bayesian Binary Method MCMC (BBM).

Pleistocene Legacies in the Contemporary Population Genetic Structure of an Acid-Specialised Crayfish, the Threatened Sand Yabby <i>Cherax robustus</i>. [PDF]
This study describes the contemporary genetic structure of a vulnerable short‐range endemic crayfish which is restricted to the heavily fragmented heathland‐peatland complexes of southeast Queensland across a range of approximately 200 km2. Using high‐resolution genome‐wide SNP sequencing, we estimate that population divergence in this species ...

Phylogenetic paleobiogeography of Late Ordovician Laurentian brachiopods [PDF]
Phylogenetic biogeographic analysis of four brachiopod genera was used to uncover large-scale geologic drivers of Late Ordovician biogeographic differentiation in Laurentia. Previously generated phylogenetic hypotheses were converted into area cladograms,
