Species richness and endemism patterns of Sternorrhyncha (Insecta, Hemiptera) in China [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2023 One of the main goals in biogeography and ecology is the study of patterns of species diversity and the driving factors in these patterns. However, such studies have not focused on Sternorrhyncha in China, although this region hosts massive species ...

Biogeographic analysis of ferns and lycophytes in Oaxaca: A Mexican beta-diverse area
Botanical Sciences, 2021 Background: Spatial patterns related to richness and endemism of Mexican ferns and lycophytes are not well known, particularly in highly biodiverse areas; among these, Oaxaca is considered a highly biodiverse Mexican state.

On the identification of areas of endemism in the Neotropical montane cloud forests: A comparative review [PDF]
Frontiers of BiogeographyNeotropical montane cloud forests are terrestrial ecosystems characterized by a consistent high humidity from clouds or mist. Geographically, these forests occur along the Andes, Mesoamerica, and the Caribbean mountain ranges.

Global patterns of taxonomic and phylogenetic endemism in liverwort assemblages
Plant DiversityExploring the worldwide patterns of endemism and the processes that lead to the formation of high-endemism centers is crucial in biogeography. This study examines the geographic distribution and ecological influences on the endemism of liverworts across ...

Aligning conservation goals: are patterns of species richness and endemism concordant at regional scales? [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2001 Biodiversity conservation strategies commonly target areas of high species richness and/or high endemism. However, the correlation between richness and endemism at scales relevant to conservation is unclear; these two common goals of conservation plans ...
