- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular biology and evolution
- 1 June 2001
We amplified, TA-cloned, and sequenced the 16S-23S internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions from single isolates of several cyanobacterial species, Calothrix parietina, Scytonema hyalinum,… Expand
Deep genetic divergences in Aoraki denticulata (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi): a widespread ‘mite harvestman’ defies DNA taxonomy

- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology
- 1 December 2007
Aoraki denticulata (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi, Pettalidae), a widespread ‘mite harvestman’ endemic to the South Island of New Zealand, is found in leaf littler habitats throughout Nelson… Expand
Spirirestis rafaelensis gen. et sp. nov. (Cyanophyceae), a new cyanobacterial genus from arid soils
- V. R. Flechtner, S. Boyer, J. Johansen, Marisa L. DeNoble
- Biology
- 1 February 2002
A new cyanobacterial genus and species, Spirirestis rafaelensis , is described from soils of a semi-arid Utah juniper community in the San Rafael Swell, Utah, U.S.A. Multiple isolates of the organism… Expand
PHYLOGENY AND GENETIC VARIANCE IN TERRESTRIAL MICROCOLEUS (CYANOPHYCEAE) SPECIES BASED ON SEQUENCE ANALYSIS OF THE 16S rRNA GENE AND ASSOCIATED 16S–23S ITS REGION 1
- S. Boyer, J. Johansen, V. R. Flechtner, G. L. Howard
- Biology
- 1 December 2002
Thirty‐one strains of Microcoleus were isolated from desert soils in the United States. Although all these taxa fit the broad definition of Microcoleus vaginatus (Vaucher) Gomont in common usage by… Expand
Evolutionary and biogeographical history of an ancient and global group of arachnids (Arachnida: Opiliones: Cyphophthalmi) with a new taxonomic arrangement
- G. Giribet, P. Sharma, +7 authors P. Schwendinger
- Biology
- 2012
We investigate the phylogeny, biogeography, time of origin and diversification, ancestral area reconstruction and largeâscale distributional patterns of an ancient group of arachnids, the… Expand
A new model Gondwanan taxon: systematics and biogeography of the harvestman family Pettalidae (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi), with a taxonomic revision of genera from Australia and New Zealand
- S. Boyer, G. Giribet
- Biology
- 1 August 2007
The phylogeny of the temperate Gondwanan harvestman family Pettalidae is investigated by means of a new morphological matrix of 45 characters, and DNA sequence data from five markers, including two… Expand
A DNA-barcoding approach to identifying juvenile freshwater mussels (Bivalvia:Unionidae) recovered from naturally infested fishes

- 11 January 2011
Abstract We developed a multilocus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-barcoding approach to identify newly transformed juvenile mussels collected from naturally infested fishes in a federally protected… Expand
Biogeography of the world: a case study from cyphophthalmid Opiliones, a globally distributed group of arachnids
- S. Boyer, R. Clouse, +4 authors G. Giribet
- Biology
- 1 December 2007
Aim To test the hypothesis that continental drift drives diversification of organisms through vicariance, we selected a group of primitive arachnids which originated before the break-up of Pangaea… Expand
Welcome back New Zealand: regional biogeography and Gondwanan origin of three endemic genera of mite harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi)
- S. Boyer, G. Giribet
- Biology
- 1 June 2009
Aim Biogeographers have long been intrigued by New Zealand’s biota due to its unique combination of typical ‘continental’ and ‘island’ characteristics. The New Zealand plateau rifted from the former… Expand
A revised dated phylogeny of scorpions: Phylogenomic support for ancient divergence of the temperate Gondwanan family Bothriuridae.
- P. Sharma, C. Baker, +6 authors G. Giribet
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 May 2018
The scorpion family Bothriuridae occupies a subset of landmasses formerly constituting East and West temperate Gondwana, but its relationship to other scorpion families is in question. Whereas… Expand
