Climate change threatens micro-endemic amphibians of an important South American high-altitude center of endemism
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2020-06-12)
Species inhabiting broad altitudinal gradients are particularly exposed to the effects of global climate change (GCC). Those species reaching mountain tops are the most negatively affected. Here, using ecological niche ...
Endemic tenebrionids (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) from the Patagonian steppe: a preliminary identification of areas of micro-endemism and richness hotspots
(Wiley, 2012-02)
Based on data from sixteen museum collections we listed the endemic tenebrionids that inhabit the Patagonian steppe. Then, according to the geographical location of the species, we identified areas of micro-endemism and ...
Biogeography of Chilean herpetofauna: Distributional patterns of species richness and endemism
(2009)
We analyze the geographic distribution pattern of Chilean amphibian and reptile species between 18°20′S (Arica) to 56°S (Magellanic Area) by the identification of centers of higher richness and endemism and we infer the ...
Environmental heterogeneity and sampling relevance areas in an Atlantic forest endemism region
(2021-07-01)
The knowledge of the diversity, richness, and distribution of tropical organisms are poorly understood, and a plethora of new species are still being described even among groups considered well-known. As a result, this ...
Epidemiology of endemic systemic fungal infections in Latin America
(Informa Healthcare, 2011-11-01)
Although endemic mycoses are a frequent health problem in Latin American countries, clinical and epidemiological data remain scarce and fragmentary. These mycoses have a significant impact on public health, and early ...

Sierra de Nipe posee gran cantidad de estrictas especies endémicas. En este trabajo el objetivo fue analizar, por centros neotropicales evolutivos, la composición de las especies endémicas estrictas y su morfología. Los ...
Spatial phylogenetics of the vascular flora of Chile
(Elsevier, 2017)
Current geographic patterns of biodiversity are a consequence of the evolutionary history of the lineages that comprise them. This study was aimed at exploring how evolutionary features of the vascular flora of Chile are ...
Genetic diversity in Nothofagus alessandrii (Fagaceae), an endangered endemic tree species of the coastal maulino forest of central Chile
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2007-07)
Background and Aims The endemic tree Nothofagus alessandrii (Fagaceae) has been historically restricted to the coastal range of Region VII of central Chile, and its forests have been increasingly destroyed and fragmented ...
