Defining endemism levels for biodiversity conservation: tree species in the Atlantic Forest hotspot
Endemic species are important for biodiversity conservation. Yet, quantifying endemism remains challenging because endemism concepts can be too strict (i.e., pure endemism) or too subjective (i.e., near endemism).

Comprehensive conservation assessments reveal high extinction risks across Atlantic Forest trees
Biodiversity is declining globally, yet many biodiversity hotspots still lack comprehensive species conservation assessments. Using multiple International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List criteria to evaluate extinction risks and millions
