Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long-term trends, and data gaps. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Global coordination and standardisation in marine biodiversity through the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) and related databases. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2013
The World Register of Marine Species is an over 90% complete open-access inventory of all marine species names. Here we illustrate the scale of the problems with species names, synonyms, and their classification, and describe how WoRMS publishes online ...

AN OVERVIEW OF BRYOPHYTES DIVISION [PDF]

, 2021
Bryophyte is a non-vascular plant, consisting of three classes: mosses, hornworts, and liverworts. The body forms have a thallus, and some have a leaf-like organ. The class division of the Bryophyte division is base on anatomical and morphological traits,

Ecosystem vulnerability to alien and invasive species: a case study on marine habitats along the Italian coast [PDF]

, 2016
1. Spread of alien species (AS) is a serious threat to marine habitats and analysis of principal descriptors of their occurrence is pivotal to set reliable conservation strategies. 2. In order to assess the susceptibility of marine habitats to biological

Water redistribution determines photosynthetic responses to warming and drying in two polar mosses [PDF]

, 2014
Predicting impacts of climate change requires an understanding of the sensitivity of species to temperature, including conflated changes in humidity. Physiological responses to temperature and clump-to-air vapour pressure difference (VPD) were compared ...

A new species of the problematic organism Webbyites from the Early Ordovician Fezouata Biota of Morocco [PDF]

, 2023
The problematic colonial organism Webbyites has previously been considered to be a hydroid (phylum Cnidaria). In this paper, we describe a new species, Webbyites felix sp. nov., from the Early Ordovician Fezouata Konservat-Lagerstätte of Morocco.
