Although the new clustergram topology shows a close correlation with those we originally presented in 1998, the PAE outputs warrant a radical reinterpretation of the results as they imply that the Laurasian fauna is derived and the Gondwanan groups basal. The distribution of endemic tardigrade genera and families provides some support for this argument though the findings should be viewed with some caution as PAE has its detractors and has not been previously applied on a ’global’ scale.}, number={s1}, journal={Journal of Limnology}, author={McINNES, Sandra J. and PUGH, Philip J.A.}, year={2007}, month={Sep.}, pages={90–96} }
