GBIF, GitHub, and taxonomy (again)
, 2013 Quick notes on yet another attempt to marry the task of editing a taxonomic classification with versioning it in GitHub.The idea of dumping the whole GBIF classification into GitHub as a series of nested folders looks untenable.

This lecture was part of the agenda of the 17th meeting of the participant nodes from GBIF Europe and Central Asia (GBIF ECA) and held by German node staff members in Waterford, Ireland (20 May 2025 - 23 May 2025). It describes the situation of the Global Information Facility (GBIF) in Germany in relation to a distributed national network of ...

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

BHL and GBIF as biomedical databases
, 2012 When I think of the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL) or GBIF I tend to think of taxonomy and biodiversity. Folk wisdom has it that BHL is full of old books, mostly pre-1923. Great for finding old taxonomic names, or nice artwork, but not exactly "modern" biology.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

Impact of global change on the distribution of mountain mammals and birds
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change and land‐use changes are key drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many species are shifting to higher elevations or latitudes in response to global warming, often encountering unfavorable land‐use conditions during the shift. These changes can lead to reduced range size and increased extinction risks, particularly for mountain ...

Key agroecosystems for the conservation of amphibians and reptiles in Europe
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Agricultural expansion and intensification are driving amphibian and reptile declines worldwide. However, sustainably managed agroecosystems can support a high diversity of herpetofauna, which play a key role in pest control, reducing crop damage.

Effects of climate change on marine biodiversity on the western Atlantic coast
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The current climate crisis, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, threatens global biodiversity, including that in marine ecosystems. However, projections for the western Atlantic Ocean that jointly quantify species richness and endemism while accounting for spatially biased and incomplete occurrence data remain limited.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.To understand the range‐wide drivers of Arizona Toad distribution and anticipate future changes, we combined 13 datasets covering distinct portions of the range in an integrated species distribution model. We estimate that the current occupied range is 1/4–1/3 of previously defined range boundaries and that increasingly dry conditions will lead to ...
