Two new papers to start your week! First, big distributions and little genetic divergence in the global biogeography of zoantharians:

Global biogeography of zoantharians indicates a weak genetic differentiation between the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific oceans, and distinct communities in tropical and temperate provinces
Biogeographic patterns for marine fishes and scleractinian stony corals are well-established, but it is still unclear whether these patterns apply to the understudied marine invertebrates. Here we inv...

Digging Into the General Dynamic Model: How Island Ontogeny Shifts the Evolutionary Drivers of Lineage Divergence
Aim The general dynamic model (GDM) of oceanic island biogeography proposes that evolutionary processes shift predictably with island ontogeny: opportunities for ecological speciation on young islan...

Phytoplankton regionalism in natural mesocosm-like wetlands of an island archipelago in the Aegean Sea
Wetlands are globally recognised as biodiversity refugia and critical climate regulators, yet they are increasingly threatened by human pressures. Although phytoplankton plays a foundational role in a...

Small-island effect is detected for both native and non-native seed plants in the largest archipelago of China
The small-island effect (SIE) describes a particular form of species–area relationship where species richness on small islands is independent of island area or relates to area in a different way than ...

Fish species composition reflects geomorphology in the Western Amazon, the Earth's vertebrate biodiversity hotspot
Fishes of the Western Amazon exhibit the greatest diversity of any continental vertebrate fauna on Earth. Hypotheses to explain diversity patterns have focused on various ecological and evolutionary p...
