Hidden hotspots of amphibian biodiversity in China

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Identifying and protecting hotspots of endemism and species richness is crucial for mitigating the global biodiversity crisis. However, our understanding of spatial diversity patterns is far from complete, which severely limits our ability to conserve biodiversity hotspots.

Hotspots of land-use change in global biodiversity hotspots

Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 2021
Abstract Land-use conversion from natural areas to agriculture and human settlements is causing global biodiversity loss. We proposed a human land-use disturbance index (LDI) to assess habitat loss and fragmentation in global biodiversity hotspots from 1992 to 2015.

Do biodiversity hotspots match with rodent conservation hotspots?

Biodiversity and Conservation, 2011
Biodiversity hotspots are used widely to designate priority regions for conservation efforts. It is unknown, however, whether the current network of hotspots adequately represents globally threatened taxonomic diversity for whole plant and animal groups. We used a mammalian group traditionally neglected in terms of conservation efforts, the rodents, in

Biodiversity Hotspots in India

2018
India is one of the 17 megadiverse countries in the world, and there are four biodiversity hotspots found in India. These are Indo-Burma, Himalaya, Western Ghats-Sri Lanka, and Sundaland. For biological diversity point of view, India is very rich in resources due to its diversified habitat and climatic conditions.

Research in biodiversity hotspots should be free

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2010
Most species live in the tropics, but most field biologists study temperate ecosystems. For example, just 9.6% of recent papers in the journal Ecology are based on work in tropical countries [1xThe geographical and institutional distribution of ecological research in the tropics. Stocks, G. et al. Biotropica.
