The trade in wild animals for meat, or 'bushmeat', is perceived as one of the most important threats to wildlife in the tropics. Unsustainable bushmea...

Increasing landscape heterogeneity and organic farming practices are known to enhance species richness in agroecosystems. However, little is known abo...

Production of many flowering crops often benefits from elevated pollinator diversity and abundance. Nevertheless, the opposite relationship may arise ...

One of the greatest threats to lotic ecosystems is flow regulation. The impacts of flow regulation on native fish are often mitigated using periodic w...

There is increasing evidence that disease-mediated invasions are widespread across a range of vertebrate, invertebrate and plant systems. We therefore...

The idea that variable fire regimes (pyrodiversity) may increase habitat heterogeneity and, consequently, increase biodiversity at the landscape level...

In this work, we hypothesized that in urban areas with reduced pollution levels, local climatic conditions can be an important driver of lichen divers...

Conservation bias towards flagship species sometimes threatens other species of chief concern. Long-term studies of potential harm by favoured species...

Conservation practices in Europe frequently attempt to perpetuate or mimic the 'traditional' forms of management of semi-natural habitats, but with a ...

The concept of biodiversity conservation relies primarily on protected areas. Yet, protected areas are influenced by the surrounding anthropogenic mat...
