Feral Cats and Biodiversity Conservation: The Urgent Prioritization of Island Management (2013, background): “Invasive predator species, parti cularly mammals, are one of the primary extinction drivers on islands (Groombridge and Jenkins 2000, Courchamp et al. 2003, Blackburn et al. 2004).”
Extinction risk and bottlenecks in the conservation of charismatic marine species (2012, background): “While our species represent 1% of the approximately 250,000 described marine species (Groombridge & Jenkins 2002) and do not include other charismatic groups such as marine mammals, they provide a sample of species that is more diverse than those typically considered in global assessments of…”
Factoring species, non-species values and threats into biodiversity prioritisation across the ecoregions of Africa and its islands (2006, background): “All rights reserved om (N.D. Burgess). ural world continues to gain pace (Groombridge and Jenkins, 2000; Hilton-Taylor, 2000; GEO3, 2002).”
Biodiversity in small-scale tropical agroforests: a review of species richness and abundance shifts and the factors influencing them (2008, background): “…of pristine tropical forests are particularly important in terms of global biodiversity since species numbers in tropical forests are so high (see Groombridge & Jenkins 2000), and many areas where such land uses prevail (such as Indonesia, the Caribbean or Southern India) are within biodiversity…”
Conservation Biogeography: assessment and prospect (2005, background): “(i) The Linnean and Wallacean shortfalls Our knowledge of the overall biodiversity of the planet remains woefully inadequate, with estimates of global biodiversity ranging over one or possibly two orders of magnitude (Groombridge, 1992; Brown & Lomolino, 1998; Groombridge & Jenkins, 2000).”
FROM FOREST TO FARMLAND: HABITAT EFFECTS ON AFROTROPICAL FOREST BIRD DIVERSITY (2005, background): “The region contains 84% of all known African primates, 68% of known African passerine birds, and 66% of known African butterflies (Groombridge and Jenkins 2000).”
A Review of Feral Cat Eradication on Islands (2004, background): “Due to high levels of species, behavioral, and genetic diversity on islands, these effects contribute significantly to the reduction of biological diversity (Stone et al. 1994; Groombridge & Jenkins 2000; Atkinson 2001; McNeely et al. 2001).”
The contribution of scientific information to the conservation and management of freshwater biodiversity in tropical Asia (2003, background): “Qualitative and quantitative data reveal a global trend of declines in populations of freshwater wetland vertebrates over the last 30–40 years; decreases average around 50% but are higher in tropical latitudes (Groombridge & Jenkins, 2000; Loh, 2000).”
Disentangling biodiversity effects on ecosystem functioning: deriving solutions to a seemingly insurmountable problem (2003, background): “Much of contemporary biodiversity research (e.g. Wilson 1988; Groombridge 1992; Hawksworth 1995; Reaka-Kudla et al. 1997; Groombridge & Jenkins 2000) does not concern itself with ecosystem functioning or functional traits.”
Reef-associated crustacean fauna: biodiversity estimates using semi-quantitative sampling and DNA barcoding (2009, background): “To date, approximately 250,000 marine species have been described (Reaka-Kudla 1997; Groombridge and Jenkins 2000, Bouchet 2006).”
Declining amphibian populations: a global phenomenon in conservation biology (2001, background): “…where resource allocation to conservation biology is seriously inadequate, that an focus or even over–emphasis on amphibians does not eclipse the equally worrying status of many other taxanomic groups (e.g. GIBBONS et al., 2000; GROOMBRIDGE & JENKINS, 2000) from both the scientific and public eye.”
Features and distribution patterns of Chinese endemic seed plant species (2011, background): “Estimations of the percentage of Chinese endemic plants have been reported in a number of publications (WCMC, 1992; Groombridge & Jenkins, 2000; Zuo & Fu, 2003), which range from 50% to 60% (He & Ma, 1997).”
