Biodiversity and conservation of the Cerrado: recent advances and old challenges (2020, neutral): “2000; Myers 2003; Myers et al.”
The diversification of eastern South American open vegetation biomes: Historical biogeography and perspectives (2011, background): “Based on its diversity, high levels of endemism, and elevated human threats, the Cerrado is considered, together with other 34 ecosystems, a global biodiversity ‘hotspot’ and the most diverse tropical savanna in the world (Myers, 2003).”
The role of the uplift of the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau for the evolution of Tibetan biotas (2015, background): “The heterogeneous distribution of the world’s biodiversity is a well-known phenomenon that can be observed between adjacent ecoregions or biomes (Myers et al., 2000; Olson et al., 2001; Myers, 2003; Myers & Mittermeier, 2003; Kier et al., 2005, 2009).”
Strategies for the conservation of endangered freshwater pearl mussels (Margaritifera margaritifera L.): a synthesis of Conservation Genetics and Ecology (2010, background): “Recently, 25 locations were identified as global hotspots for conservation prioritisation, and it was suggested that the limited conservation resources available should be put into these areas first (Myers, 2003).”
The Sixth Mass Extinction: fact, fiction or speculation? (2022, background): “…among many others: selecting areas with both the highest diversity and highest threat level, that is, biodiversity hotspots (Myers et al ., 2000; Myers, 2003); selecting species based on threat level and phylogenetic value (Redding & Mooers, 2006; Isaac et al ., 2007; Volkmann et al ., 2014);…”
Rarest of the rare: advances in combining evolutionary distinctiveness and scarcity to inform conservation at biogeographical scales (2010, background): “In 1988, Norman Myers (Myers, 1988) published the first of a series of high-impact articles on global biodiversity hotspots (Myers, 1990, 2003; Myers et al., 2000; Mittermeier et al., 2004; Brooks et al., 2006), identifying regions of high endemism and habitat loss as global conservation priorities.”
Squamate richness in the Brazilian Cerrado and its environmental–climatic associations (2007, background): “global biodiversity ‘hotspot’, as defined by diversity, endemism, and human threats (Myers, 2003; Mittermeier et al ., 2005).”
