| Abstrakt: | Many coastal marine species have discontinuous distributions or genetic breakpoints throughout their geographical ranges. These spatial and genetic disjunctions occur in species that span limited to broad dispersal potential. Thus, the mechanisms that underlie these disjunctions remain speculative or incompletely known, particularly on small spatial scales where long-term historical processes are unlikely to be the only mechanism contributing to disjunction. Rather, ecological or oceanographic factors may be important. To identify key drivers of coastal disjunctions, we reviewed publications investigating spatial and genetic disjunctions in coastal marine species and visually summarized where and why they are thought to occur. The most frequently cited mechanisms implicated in causing disjunctions include historical processes, oceanographic features, heterogeneous habitat, species introductions, and limited larval dispersal capacities. However, the relative importance of each of these processes varies depending on the spatial scales investigated. Furthermore, locations associated with disjunctions for a suite of species are typically associated with multiple processes that maintain these disjunctions. This study provides a non-exhaustive synthesis of disjunctions in coastal marine species by visualizing where they occur, exploring underlying mechanisms, and investigating biases in how the scientific community studies this phenomenon.
