Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Assessing responses of reef island seabirds to environmental and anthropogenic drivers

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Tropical insular ecosystems face escalating, cumulative impacts of land‐ and sea‐based ecological threats that jeopardize the long‐term sustainability of their native communities. This joint vulnerability is epitomized by reef island seabirds, which are exposed to reef decline and coastal erosion driven by climate change, reduction in prey ...

Comprehensive and representative conservation planning for biodiversity of ice‐free Antarctica

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antarctica is designated as a natural reserve devoted to peace and science, with Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPAs) serving as the primary instrument for area‐based biodiversity protection. However, the existing ASPA network lacks the comprehensiveness and representativeness required under Annex V, Article 3(2), of the Madrid Protocol.

Behavioural Diversity of Fishes: Concepts, Drivers and Its Role in Conservation and Management

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human activity has altered nearly all ecosystems on Earth, contributing to substantial biodiversity loss across taxonomic, genetic and functional dimensions, from the intraspecific to the ecosystem scale. Yet some components of biodiversity remain hidden or underappreciated, including behavioural diversity.

Using Catch Data to Estimate Changes in Global Commercial Abalone Abundance

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in global wild capture production of abalone are explored to infer potential changes in biological stocks. The study found that 77% (or 10 out of the 13) of the countries that reportedly caught abalone in the wild have experienced declines in catches between 1980 and 2023, and on aggregate catch declined by almost 83% between 1980 and ...

A Modified Gear Removal Index (GRI) Method to Support the Management of Abandoned Fishing Gear on Coralligenous Reefs

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Abandoned, Lost or otherwise Discarded Fishing Gears (ALDFG) have significant negative effects on marine ecosystems. In the Mediterranean Sea, the impact of ALDFG is particularly relevant on coralligenous reefs. The management of ALDFG focuses primarily on their removal, however this type of intervention may potentially damage the habitat, so ...
