An evaluation of important plant areas around the world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Area‐based approaches have long dominated biodiversity conservation and have been reinforced by the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. The important plant area (IPA) approach is a leading framework for the spatial conservation prioritization of plants and fungi, but over 20 years since its launch, its application and conservation ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China.

Differences in estimates of extinction risk between occupancy and abundance data
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Temporal trends in populations are often measured with presence–absence and abundance data. These data types are inherently different, but quantitative comparisons of threat statuses assessed through occupancy or abundance data are currently lacking.

A spatial planning approach for the identification of critical habitat for threatened species
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The designation of critical habitat for the conservation of threatened species has long been recognized in the environmental legislation of different countries. However, translating vague legislation about critical habitat into practical real‐world designation remains challenging because of its sensitivity to many context‐ and species‐specific

A social network analysis of the European science–policy–society interface on biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Despite the wealth of evidence on biodiversity status, trends, and policy options in Europe, knowledge often fails to inform policy makers and decision makers effectively. Implementing the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 will require the transformation of engagement and exchange between knowledge providers and policy and decision makers ...

Changes in community composition and functional diversity of European bats under climate change
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change is predicted to drive geographical range shifts that will result in changes in species diversity and functional composition and have potential repercussions for ecosystem functioning. However, the effect of these changes on species composition and functional diversity (FD) remains unclear, especially for mammals, specifically ...

Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.
