Patterns, biases and prospects in the distribution and diversity of Neotropical snakes
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 14-21, January 2018., 2018 Abstract Motivation We generated a novel database of Neotropical snakes (one of the world's richest herpetofauna) combining the most comprehensive, manually compiled distribution dataset with publicly available data. We assess, for the first time, the diversity patterns for all Neotropical snakes as well as sampling density and sampling biases.
