Hi, Diego, you should precise the problem you faced as reference is giant! Even in my library I have handreds if not thousands units. I attach for you modern approach on bioregionalization of shelf & coastal areas. But for deep -abissal, ultraabissal, abisso-pelagial etc. reg. approach is other.

Andrey

Thank you all. I am mainly looking for papers that deal with natural processes setting up the distribution of marine invertebrate species

So, general approaches: two more books. Please, send me your's regular e-mail - can send you one more source of possible natural factors influence (general reasons of distribution).

OK, Diego, you asked me about Caribean. Existing a lot of good books (like THOMAS BARBOUR from 1914) but i hope you need smwt modern like:

Juan J. Morrone BIOGEOGRAPHIC AREAS AND TRANSITION ZONES OF LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN ISLANDS

 from 2006 (Attached).

Anyway even old such famous paper like Myers from 1938 you should read (Attached).

Andrey

thank you very much Andrey!
