What do Data from Fieldwork and Scientific Collections Tell us about Species Richness and Composition of Amphibians and Reptiles
(Soc Brasileira Herpetologia, 2017-08-01)
Combining different sampling methods is essential to determine species richness. Recently, herpetological surveys have been conducted in poorly sampled regions in Brazil using data from scientific collections as complementary ...
Optimising sampling methods for small mammal communities in Neotropical rainforests
(2017-04-01)
Quantifying mammalian biodiversity is a critical yet daunting challenge, particularly in species-rich ecosystems. Non-volant small mammals account for >60% of the mammalian diversity and often require several survey methods ...
Environmental heterogeneity influences life-form richness and species composition but not species richness of aquatic macrophytes in tropical coastal rivers
(2020-01-01)
The coastal rivers of the São Paulo State in SE Brazil have different lengths and seawater influence. We evaluated whether: (1) environmental heterogeneity (EH) is associated with the species and life-form richness of ...
Global patterns of species richness in coastal cephalopods
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-08)
Within the context of global climate change and overfishing of fish stocks, there is some evidence that cephalopod populations are benefiting from this changing setting. These invertebrates show enhanced phenotypic flexibility ...
Species richness, diversity and human activities in an elevation gradient of a high-ecosystem in Lagunas Huascoaltinas, Atacama Region, Chile

Evaluation of species richness estimators in studies of diversity involving two larval digenean communities parasitizing snail hosts
(Springer, 2010-07)
The nonparametric estimators of species richness are some of the most widely used extrapolation methods in studies of biodiversity. These studies need relative large samples to achieve total diversity (including rare ...
Temporal and spatial patterns of tenebrionid beetle diversity in NW Patagonia, Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-12)
Spatial and temporal variation in abundance, richness and composition of Tenebrionidae beetle assemblages were described for north-western Patagonia. Beetles were collected using 450 pitfall traps arranged in 50 plots ...
