Delimiting priority areas for the conservation of endemic and threatened Neotropical birds using a niche-based gap analysis.
Knowledge of spatiotemporal distribution of biodiversity is still very incomplete in the tropics. This is one of the major problems preventing the assessment and effectiveness of conservation actions. Mega-diverse tropical regions are being exposed to fast and profound environmental changes, and the...
