The coincidence of climatic and species rarity: high risk to small-range species from climate change
Ohlemuller R, Anderson B, Araujo M, Butchart S, Kudrna O, Ridgely R, et al.
Biol Lett
. 2008 Jul;
4(5):568-72.
PMID: 18664421
Why do areas with high numbers of small-range species occur where they do? We found that, for butterfly and plant species in Europe, and for bird species in the Western...

McKnight M, White P, McDonald R, Lamoreux J, Sechrest W, Ridgely R, et al.
PLoS Biol
. 2007 Oct;
5(10):e272.
PMID: 17927449
Beta-diversity, the change in species composition between places, is a critical but poorly understood component of biological diversity. Patterns of beta-diversity provide information central to many ecological and evolutionary questions,...

Storch D, Davies R, Zajicek S, Orme C, Olson V, Thomas G, et al.
Ecol Lett
. 2006 Nov;
9(12):1308-20.
PMID: 17118005
Spatial patterns of species richness follow climatic and environmental variation, but could reflect random dynamics of species ranges (the mid-domain effect, MDE). Using data on the global distribution of birds,...

Grenyer R, Orme C, Jackson S, Thomas G, Davies R, Davies T, et al.
Nature
. 2006 Nov;
444(7115):93-6.
PMID: 17080090
Global conservation strategies commonly assume that different taxonomic groups show congruent geographical patterns of diversity, and that the distribution of extinction-prone species in one group can therefore act as a...

Orme C, Davies R, Olson V, Thomas G, Ding T, Rasmussen P, et al.
PLoS Biol
. 2006 Jun;
4(7):e208.
PMID: 16774453
Large-scale patterns of spatial variation in species geographic range size are central to many fundamental questions in macroecology and conservation biology. However, the global nature of these patterns has remained...

Orme C, Davies R, Burgess M, Eigenbrod F, Pickup N, Olson V, et al.
Nature
. 2005 Aug;
436(7053):1016-9.
PMID: 16107848
Biodiversity hotspots have a prominent role in conservation biology, but it remains controversial to what extent different types of hotspot are congruent. Previous studies were unable to provide a general...
