Phylogenetic endemism of the orchids of Megamexico reveals complementary areas for conservation
Plant Diversity, 2022 Orchid diversity provides a unique opportunity to further our understanding of biotic and abiotic factors linked to patterns of richness, endemism, and phylogenetic endemism in many regions. However, orchid diversity is consistently threatened by illegal

Delimiting areas of endemism through kernel interpolation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 We propose a new approach for identification of areas of endemism, the Geographical Interpolation of Endemism (GIE), based on kernel spatial interpolation. This method differs from others in being independent of grid cells.
