The biogeography of the magnesian limestone grassland flora of east Durham and Tyne & Wear [PDF]

, 1995
1. The remaining fragments of Magnesian Limestone Grassland (MLG) in East Durham and Tyne & Wear were surveyed. Biogeographical theory and climate modelling techniques are applied in order to provide insights for conservation policy 2.

Multi-population comparison of resource exploitation by island foxes: implications for conservation

, 2014
Imperiled island foxes are inherently resource-limited by their insular ecology. We examined food use on all 6 islands where they occur to assess resource exploitation patterns.

Prevalence of traded bird species in key biodiversity areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The use and trade of biodiversity involve tens of thousands of species that are exploited at a range of scales, intensities, and degrees of sustainability. As a result, some are highly threatened. Key biodiversity areas (KBAs) are sites of significance for the persistence of biodiversity identified nationally based on standardized criteria ...

Identifying the exposure of taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity of steppe birds to renewable energy development

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity is globally threatened by human impacts, including land‐use transformation and climate change, which has prompted a rapid transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources, such as photovoltaic (PV) energy. However, utility‐scale PV plants require vast areas and can lead to conflicts with biodiversity conservation, making ...

Scales of marine endemism in oceanic islands and the Provincial-Island endemism

Peer Community Journal
Oceanic islands are remote environments commonly harboring endemic species, which often are unique lineages originated and maintained by a variety of ecological, biogeographical and evolutionary processes.

The island syndrome in birds

Islands are home to some of the most unique and threatened groups of organisms in the world. The distinctiveness and vulnerability of island species stems from their adaptations to insular environments.

Island Biogeography: A Perspective from Tasmania

, 2020
It is a great privilege to have been asked to respond to Lee Durrell’s account of the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust’s extraordinary work. Lee has provided a succinct explanation of why islands are so suitable for the study of biodiversity.

Natural Parasitism of Nezara viridula (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) by Trichopoda pictipennis Bigot (Diptera: Tachinidae) in an Organic Strawberry Field in Germany

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Natural parasitism of the invasive southern green stinkbug was recorded in an organic strawberry cropping system in southwestern Germany. The tachinid fly Trichopoda pictipennis shows successful establishment and field activity, indicating ongoing range expansion.
