Evolutionary history of the flora of Mexico: Dry forests cradles and museums of endemism (2018, methodology): “…analysis of neo- and paleoendemism that searches for centers of endemism, and classifies them by the branch lengths of the rare taxa within them was performed in this study; it was carried out in a two-step process run in Biodiverse v.1.1 (Laffan et al., 2010, based on Mishler et al., 2014).”

Conservation status and threats for African reptiles (2016, methodology): “0 (Laffan et al., 2010), and general linear regression was used to test the hypothesis that estimated species richness is an artefact of sample density.”
Mountains, climate and niche heterogeneity explain global patterns of fern diversity (2021, methodology): “In the first step, we used Biodiverse 3.0.0 (Laffan et al., 2010) to calculate PE, PE_alt and RPE values for all grid cells in our dataset and identify grid cells with significantly high values for either PE or PE_alt; significance (two- tailed test, α = 0.05) was assessed by comparison to a null…”
Atlas of Brazilian Snakes: Verified Point-Locality Maps to Mitigate the Wallacean Shortfall in a Megadiverse Snake Fauna (2019, methodology): “We calculated richness, number of records, redundancy (1 � richness/number of records, where values close to 1 are well sampled cells, while 0 means no redundancy in the sampling, i.e., each species has only one record; Laffan et al., 2010), and corrected weighted endemism (sum of the inverse of the”
Continental‐scale spatial phylogenetics of Australian angiosperms provides insights into ecology, evolution and conservation (2016, methodology): “Biodiverse v.1 (Laffan et al., 2010) was used to calculate a set of six diversity indices and associated randomizations for equal-area square grid cells (50 9 50 km) covering the continent of Australia including Tasmania (3323 grid cells in total): taxon richness (TR), weighted endemism (WE), PD, ph”
SDMtoolbox 2.0: the next generation Python-based GIS toolkit for landscape genetic, biogeographic and species distribution model analyses (2017, unknown): “A second, 89 similar tool categorizes significance of randomizations done in Biodiverse and is applicable to any 90 randomization performed in Biodiverse (Laffan et al. 2010).”
