Integrative diagnosis and review of the conservation status of a Near Threatened species of the “Psalidodon scabripinnis complex”

open access: goldNeotropical Ichthyology
Abstract The integration between morphological and barcode datasets allowed the discovery of new populations of Psalidodon cremnobates, expanding the distribution of this species to the Mampituba River drainage, municipality of Cambará do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and letting a review of the classification of extinction risk.

The rediscovery of Brownlowia tersa (L.) Kosterm. (Malvaceae), from the Andaman Islands, India — a Near Threatened mangrove species [PDF]

open access: goldCheck List, 2016
Brownlowia tersa, described by C.E. Parkinson from the Andaman Islands during the 1920s, was never recollected. The present report concerns its recent collection from North Andaman and Middle Andaman Islands with updated nomenclature, detailed description and distribution notes. It is considered a near threatened species due to habitat loss.

Food and Habitat Selection ofLepus brachyurus lyoniKishida, a Near-Threatened Species on Sado Island, Japan [PDF]

open access: greenMammal Study, 2010
Abstract. We determined the environmental requirements for Lepus brachyurus lyoni on Sado Island, Japan, during the winter when food resources are low. Hare track survey sites were classified by vegetation type. The movement distances of hares, which indicated habitat preference, were evaluated as the relative length of tracks in a 1-ha area.

Sonneratia ovata Backer (Lythraceae): status and distribution of a Near Threatened mangrove species in tsunami impacted mangrove habitats of Nicobar Islands, India [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2012
The world’s most productive ecosystem, the mangrove forest, is under immense pressure due to natural and human induced disturbances. The Indian Ocean tsunami on 26 December 2004 had an adverse effect on these habitats by breaking and uprooting the mangrove trees.

MaxEnt modelling for predicting the potential distribution of a near threatened rosewood species (Dalbergia cultrata Graham ex Benth)

open access: closedEcological Engineering, 2019
Abstract Climate change will affect ecological factors that influence species distribution patterns at different spatial and temporal scales. We applied MaxEnt to predict how climate change will influence the distribution of ecologically and economically important tree species Dalbergia cultrata Graham ex Benth. D.

Two new species of <i>Fulvifomes</i> (<i>Basidiomycota</i>, <i>Hymenochaetaceae</i>) on threatened or near threatened tree species in Japan

open access: goldMycoscience, 2022
We describe two new species of Fulvifomes based on morphological observations and phylogenetic investigations. Both species were identified as Phellinus rimosus by former mycologists, but both are morphologically distinct from authenticated specimen of P. rimosus. Fulvifomes boninensis is characterized by perennial basidiomata, a sulcate pileus surface

Inclusion of near‐threatened micronutrient‐rich small indigenous species (SIS) dhela (Osteobrama cotio) in pond aquaculture [PDF]

open access: goldAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries
AbstractDue to their high content of micronutrients, small indigenous species (SISs) of fish play a vital role in the diets of people. Dhela (Osteobrama cotio) is one of the most important micronutrient‐rich SISs and was once abundant but is currently disappearing from inland waters.
