Integrating local ecological knowledge into systematic conservation planning for seahorse conservation. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Successful long‐term conservation relies on strategic planning for pragmatic actions to mitigate threats. Prioritizing actions and areas to support conservation goals in the most cost‐effective scenario becomes crucial in resource‐limited environments. However, planning and management can be challenging in data‐limited contexts.

Mutation of Cultural Information on the Use of Plant Complexes in Local Medical Systems. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2020
Despite being an affable strategy of adaptive expectation, the transmission of cultural information can result in unintended changes in the information. This is known as “mutation” in the theory of cultural evolution. The occurrence of information mutations in local medical systems may be greater in some situations.

Host diversity outperforms climate as a global driver of symbiont diversity in the bird‐feather mite system

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 416-426, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim The simultaneous influence of abiotic and biotic factors as main drivers of global species distributions remains poorly understood, especially in host‐dependent groups. In this study, we diverge from traditional macroecological approaches by considering both biotic (avian species diversity) and abiotic (climatic) factors in determining the
