Global terrestrial distribution of penguins (Spheniscidae) and their conservation by protected areas [PDF]
Biodiversity and Conservation, 2019 Establishing protected areas (PAs) ranks among the top priority actions to mitigate the global scale of modern biodiversity declines. However, the distribution of biodiversity is spatially asymmetric among regions and lineages, and the extent to which PAs offer effective protection for species and ecosystems remains uncertain.
