Notas sobre la variación de briófitas entre un bosque pantanoso de Amomyrtus luma y una pradera antropogénica húmeda de Juncus procerus

open access: yesGayana: Botanica, 2020
The bryophyte richness was evaluated in the understory of a swamp forest of Amomyrtus luma and an anthropogenic wet prairie of Juncus procerus. Bryophyte richness, and growth and life forms changed between both wetlands.

Improving efficiency in conservation planning by modeling species‐specific responses to threat abatement

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reversing ongoing biodiversity loss requires effectively managing anthropogenic threats. Although conservation actions can mitigate these threats, prioritizing and targeting such actions remain challenging because species respond differently depending on the nature of the threats and their biological traits.

Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

Synthesis of Pollinator‐Friendly Management in European Protected Areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Effectiveness of pollinator‐friendly management in European protected areas. Abstract Pollinators are important to humans and nature due to their role in ecosystem functioning and services. Research on the effects of pollinator management in protected areas is insufficient compared with that on farmlands and urban areas, potentially hindering ...

Comparing screening outcomes for private sector nature‐related assessments based on national and global biodiversity datasets

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In response to demand for better biodiversity stewardship from the private sector, frameworks such as the Taskforce on Nature‐related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) have been developed to help companies assess, manage, and disclose their nature‐related impacts, dependencies, risks, and opportunities.
