Completeness of digital accessible knowledge of the plants of Brazil and priorities for survey and inventory (2014, background): “…is when sites of high species richness correspond closely to sampling intensity; this situation suggests that ‘hotspots’ may represent artefacts, and similar diversity would be found at other locations if sampling were as intense (Nelson et al., 1990; Tobler et al., 2007; Ahrends et al., 2011).”
The data void in modeling current and future distributions of tropical species (2011, background): “1 1 336 758 5596, fax 1 1 336 758 6008; Kenneth J. Feeley, e-mail: kjfeeley@gmail.com r 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 1 change is potentially crippled by a lack of basic data (Tobler et al., 2007; Collen et al., 2008).”
Keep collecting: accurate species distribution modelling requires more collections than previously thought (2011, background): “…at random but rather collections tend to be clumped around specific areas because of the nature of collecting campaigns and ease of access to sites within a particular habitat (Kadmon et al., 2004; Moerman & Estabrook, 2006; Schulman et al., 2007; Tobler et al., 2007; Loiselle et al., 2008).”
Distributional migrations, expansions, and contractions of tropical plant species as revealed in dated herbarium records (2012, background): “A well-recognized concern with using herbarium records to map species distributions is collection biases (Schulman et al., 2007; Tobler et al., 2007; Boakes et al., 2010).”
Morphological Evolution in the Mulberry Family (Moraceae) (2009, background): “…ecology and conservation biology ( Fredriksson and Wich 2006 ; Harrison 2006 ; Kokou et al. 2006 ; Ssegawa and Nkuutu 2006 ; Mucunguzi 2007 ; Tobler et al. 2007 ), plant-insect interactions ( Castellanos et al. 2006 ; Kojima 2006 ; Ufkes and Grams 2007 ), coevolution ( Weiblen 2004 ;…”
