Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT
A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy Stuart H. M. Butchart, Olivia Crowe, Tom Scott, Andrew J.
