The Antarctic Circumpolar Current as a diversification trigger for deep-sea octocorals
Dueñas, Luisa F.; Tracey, Dianne M.; Crawford, Andrew J.; Wilke, Thomas; Alderslade, Phil; Sánchez, Juan A. (2016)Background: Antarctica is surrounded by the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the largest and strongest current in the world. Despite its potential importance for shaping biogeographical patterns, the distribution and ... -
Assembly processes of gastropod community change with horizontal and vertical zonation in ancient Lake Ohrid: a metacommunity speciation perspective
Hauffe, Torsten; Albrecht, Christian; Wilke, Thomas (2016)The Balkan Lake Ohrid is the oldest and most diverse freshwater lacustrine system in Europe. However, it remains unclear whether species community composition, as well as the diversification of its endemic taxa, is mainly ... -

Changes in selection regime cause loss of phenotypic plasticity in planktonic freshwater copepods
Sereda, Sergej Vitalevic; Wilke, Thomas; Schultheiß, Roland (2014)Rapid phenotypic adaptation is critical for populations facing environmental changes and can be facilitated by phenotypic plasticity in the selected traits. Whereas recurrent environmental fluctuations can favour the ... -
A Complex System of Glacial Sub-Refugia Drives Endemic Freshwater Biodiversity on the Tibetan Plateau
Clewing, Catharina; Albrecht, Christian; Wilke, Thomas (2016)Although only relatively few freshwater invertebrate families are reported from the Tibetan Plateau, the degree of endemism may be high. Many endemic lineages occur within permafrost areas, raising questions about the ... -
Constant diversification rates of endemic gastropods in ancient Lake Ohrid: ecosystem resilience likely buffers environmental fluctuations
Föller, Kirstin; Stelbrink, Björn; Hauffe, Torsten; Albrecht, Christian; Wilke, Thomas (2015)Ancient lakes represent key ecosystems for endemic freshwater species. This high endemic biodiversity has been shown to be mainly the result of intra-lacustrine diversification. Whereas the principle role of this mode of ... -
Current extinction rate in European freshwater gastropods greatly exceeds that of the late Cretaceous mass extinction
Neubauer, Thomas; Hauffe, Torsten; Silvestro, Daniele; Schauer, Jens; Kadolsky, Dietrich; Wesselingh, Frank P.; Harzhauser, Mathias; Wilke, Thomas (2021) -

Differential resilience of ancient sister lakes Ohrid and Prespa to environmental disturbances during the Late Pleistocene
Jovanovska, Elena; Cvetkoska, Aleksandra; Hauffe, Torsten; Levkov, Zlatko; Wagner, Bernd; Sulpizio, Roberto; Francke, Alexander; Albrecht, Christian; Wilke, Thomas (2016)Ancient lakes, such as lakes Ohrid and Prespa on the Balkan Peninsula, have become model systems for studying the link between geological and biotic evolution. Recently, the scientific deep-drilling project Scientific ... -
Dynamic Interplay of ENSO Events and Local Hydrodynamic Parameters Drives Demography and Health Status of Gorgonian Sea Fan Populations on a Remote Tropical Eastern Pacific Island
Quintanilla, Elena; Madurell, Teresa; Wilke, Thomas; Sánchez, Juan A. (2019)Gorgonian corals occurring in shallow waters are vulnerable to changing environmental conditions and human-related pressures such as pollution, overfishing, and diseases. However, anthropogenic effects on coral systems are ... -
Ecological opportunity may facilitate diversification in Palearctic freshwater organisms: a case study on hydrobiid gastropods
Delicado, Diana; Hauffe, Torsten; Wilke, Thomas (2018)BACKGROUND: Differences in species richness among phylogenetic clades are attributed to clade age and/or variation in diversification rates. Access to ecological opportunity may trigger a temporary increase in diversification ... -
Ecophenotypic plasticity leads to extraordinary gastropod shells found on the Roof of the World
Clewing, Catharina; Riedel, Frank; Wilke, Thomas; Albrecht, Christian (2015)The often extraordinary shell forms and shapes of gastropods found in palaeolakes, such as the highly diverse Gyraulus fauna of the famous Steinheim Basin, have been puzzling evolutionary biologists for centuries, and there ... -
