The recent evolution of many vent and seep invertebrate species suggests that Cenozoic tectonic history and oceanic circulation patterns have been important in defining contemporary biogeographic patterns.
Osedax: Bone-Eating Marine Worms with Dwarf Males
- G. Rouse, S. Goffredi, R. Vrijenhoek
- BiologyScience
- 30 July 2004
A new genus, Osedax, and two new species of annelids with females that consume the bones of dead whales via ramifying roots are described, which belongs to the Siboglinidae, which includes pogonophoran and vestimentiferan worms from deep-sea vents, seeps, and anoxic basins.
Factors Affecting Clonal Diversity and Coexistence

In all-female organisms such as Poeciliopsis, which are dependent upon sexual species for insemination, competitive abilities probably are at a premium in the densely populated pools and arroyos of the Sonoran Desert.
Biogeography and Ecological Setting of Indian Ocean Hydrothermal Vents

Most organisms found at these Indian Ocean vent fields have evolutionary affinities with western Pacific vent faunas, but a shrimp that ecologically dominates Indian Ocean vents closely resembles its Mid-Atlantic counterpart.
Genetic diversity and connectivity of deep‐sea hydrothermal vent metapopulations

Level of genetic diversity appear to correspond with the number of active vent localities that a species occupies within its range, although natural barriers associated with variation in depth, deep‐ocean currents, and lateral offsets of ridge axes often subdivide populations.

Five new species of modioliform mussels in the family Mytilidae are described from material collected at sulfide/hydrocarbon seeps in the Gulf of Mexico. New definitive taxa, placed in the subfamily…
Distinct patterns of genetic differentiation among annelids of eastern Pacific hydrothermal vents

- 1 September 2004
Population genetic and phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial COI from five deep‐sea hydrothermal vent annelids provided insights into their dispersal modes and barriers to gene flow to identify potential dispersal filters in these eastern Pacific ridge systems.
HISTORICAL BIOGEOGRAPHY OF THE LIVEBEARING FISH GENUS POECILIOPSIS (POECILIIDAE: CYPRINODONTIFORMES)

- BiologyEvolution; international journal of organic…
- 1 May 2002
It is hypothesized that at least two geological events were responsible for divergence of freshwater topminnows in the genus Poeciliopsis, and the geological history of this tectonically and volcanically active region is discussed and systematic implications for the genus are outlined.
