Will climate change reduce the efficacy of protected areas for amphibian conservation in Italy (2011, background): “To the contrary, by considering total vertebrate diversity, Sicily did not emerge in Maiorano et al. (2006, 2007) as an area of high irreplaceability, while this region is of great importance if one considers the conservation of amphibian diversity.”
High and Far: Biases in the Location of Protected Areas (2009, background): “Previous national-level studies suggest the adage has a basis in reality [11,12,13,14].”
A Red List of Italian Saproxylic Beetles: taxonomic overview, ecological features and conservation issues (Coleoptera) (2015, background): “The percentage of protected areas at national level has grown to about 12%, in line with the objectives of international conventions (Maiorano et al. 2006; 2007).”
Hotspots of species richness, threat and endemism for terrestrial vertebrates in SW Europe (2011, background): “For each water-related species (mainly amphibians and aquatic birds) we collected distance to temporary and/or permanent waters (based on Palomo and Gisbert, 2002; Martí and Del Moral, 2003; Pleguezuelos et al., 2004; and adapted from Maiorano et al., 2006).”
Predicting potential distribution of the jaguar (Panthera onca) in Mexico: identification of priority areas for conservation (2011, methodology): “In particular, we considered all data available on ecology and distribution for each prey species, and we built a deductive distribution model following the approach outlined in Maiorano et al. (2006).”
Explaining the global pattern of protected area coverage: relative importance of vertebrate biodiversity, human activities and agricultural suitability (2008, background): “…areas and agricultural potential is probably related to the fact that agricultural activities have been in place for thousands of years, and consequently the protected areas were established in remaining lands, frequently in those areas with lower agricultural potential (Maiorano et al., 2006).”
