Informing spatial conservation prioritization with species’ traits

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract New Guinea, the most botanically diverse island on the planet, is the location for one of the boldest conservation initiatives. The Manokwari Declaration aims to achieve 70% conservation designation for the Bird's Head Peninsula. This is 40% higher than the 2022 Global Biodiversity Framework target.
