Biogeographic analysis of ferns and lycophytes in Oaxaca: A Mexican beta-diverse area
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.

Species richness and endemism patterns of Sternorrhyncha (Insecta, Hemiptera) in China [PDF]
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 ...

Invertebrates in general have long been underrepresented in studies on biodiversity, biogeography and conservation. Boundaries of biodiversity hotspots are often delimited intuitively based on floristic endemism and have seldom been empirically tested ...

On the identification of areas of endemism in the Neotropical montane cloud forests: A comparative review [PDF]
Neotropical 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.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Studies on Plant Endemism during the Period of 1991–2022
A bibliometric analysis of 349 scholarly documents published on the topic plant nativity and endemism from 1991–2022 was carried out using the ‘bibliometrix’ tool, developed through the R programming language.

Differential Functional Constraints Cause Strain-Level Endemism in Polynucleobacter Populations. [PDF]
The adaptation of bacterial lineages to local environmental conditions creates the potential for broader genotypic diversity within a species, which can enable a species to dominate across ecological gradients because of niche flexibility.

An inordinate fondness?: the number, distributions, and origins of diatom species [PDF]
The number of extant species of diatoms is estimated here to be at least 30,000 and probably ca. 100,000, by extrapolation from an eclectic sample of genera and species complexes.
