Endemic vascular plants provide reliable indicators for mapping seasonally dry tropical forests Plant communities are unevenly distributed in space, shaped by both abiotic and biotic factors. Several methods have been developed for delineating their extent, including the spatial analysis of vege...

The southern hemisphere is full of birds found nowhere else on Earth. Their importance has been overlooked Knowing how many endemic species a place has is important because it can help improve conservation efforts.

Located at the heart of unfragmented rainforest, Manu-Purus legacy landscape is a global hotspot for #endemism & hosts 1/6 of the world’s plant #species.

It's also one of the last homes to an unknown number of #indigenous communities living in isolation.
