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 ...

Endemism in historical biogeography and conservation biology: concepts and implications
Biogeographia, 2017 Endemism is often misinterpreted as referring to narrow distributions (range restriction). In fact, a taxon is said to be endemic to an area if it lives there and nowhere else.

Global patterns and ecological drivers of taxonomic and phylogenetic endemism in angiosperm genera
Plant DiversityEndemism of lineages lies at the core of understanding variation in community composition among geographic regions because it reflects how speciation, extinction, and dispersal have influenced current distributions.

The endemic gastropod fauna of Lake Titicaca : correlation between molecular evolution and hydrographic history [PDF]
, 2012 Lake Titicaca, situated in the Altiplano high plateau, is the only ancient lake in South America. This 2- to 3-My-old (where My is million years) water body has had a complex history that included at least five major hydrological phases during the ...

The mosses of sub-Saharan Africa : 2., endemism and biodiversity [PDF]
, 1997 Based on a recent moss checklist of sub-Saharan Africa, an analysis is made of moss diversity and endemism in the area. There are over 3000 taxa, 77% of which are endemic. Figures for diversity and endemism for each country are listed, mapped and graphed,

Trematodes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia: emerging patterns of diversity and richness in coral reef fishes [PDF]
, 2014 The Great Barrier Reef holds the richest array of marine life found anywhere in Australia, including a diverse and fascinating parasite fauna. Members of one group, the trematodes, occur as sexually mature adult worms in almost all Great Barrier Reef ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogenous inflammatory condition with widely varying global prevalence estimates. The frequency of SLE in the general population of Australia has been reported to be notably lower than contemporary estimates in countries such as the United States or United Kingdom, at 19 to 39 per 100,000 as opposed ...
